closed eyes, dimmed lights
on my knees
i've lost the keys
cage fight, wrong or left?
lead the way, i'll follow
suit and tie
me back together
feather-soft fingers
and rough words
where does this go?
not down that road
we swore on both our lips
it would burn behind us
but not without a piece
of you and me to ignite the flame
let the paint drip
water rip through stone
curtains drawn in pink and green
sketched horizons blend
arch of your back over the moon
who holds us now?
cradles rocked
under silver sleep
sweet farewells
and bitter greetings
severed ears still hear
weave never-letting-gos
through always-remembers
lean to the stars
hear their quiet after-thoughts
lock yourself apart
never ask for what you can't have
