Winter
How much of yesterday's dillydallying--
Will weigh me down and hold me under--
Before I fold your letter up, and burn it--
In the fire, I'll press my lips and face to it--
Drown myself in your words----
Frozen bits of time, beads of ice--
Our memories together, here and there--
No fluidity, no continuity--
Only blips in a sea of nothing----
Walk with me, one last time--
Before we die in the cold fire of separation--
You'll walk with me, because I'm dragging you--
And I'll be dragging you with me--
For the rest of my life----
Let's sink this ship before it ports--
Annihilate the captain and the crew--
FUCK REALITY,
Let's dream----
Paint the world new.
