After
Track
And
Ac Moore,
Things were back to the way they should be.
Me,
With you,
Against you.
And this time
We had enough privacy
To make things even more truthful.
We both lost things,
I even lost it all for a little.
And who knows?
Maybe you won't turn around next time.
But oh my word.
Trying not to stare and keep staring
But also knowing I can
But also knowing I wanted to kiss you over and over again
But also knowing I wanted to remember this because who knows when I'll get to again
So I didn't
Maybe not as much as I wanted to.
Oh well.
Holy.
Fucking.
Shit.

I can taste salt water
And if I blink again
You'll be sinking in
So we'll learn to swim in the oceans you made
...
And I'll hold on to the words you spoke of
Anchored down in the throat, love
And I'm captain of this sinking boat now
With just one armband to carry me home
When salted tears won't dry
I'll wipe my shirtsleeves under your eyes
These hearts will be flooded tonight
I'll wipe my shirtsleeves under your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
I still taste salt water
On my lips from your kiss, bitterness
...
