Once when I was younger I saw you through your eyes
Our movements deranged falling in this way
Like pressing your thumb on the scale like ruling a world
Distending it in sleep I’m wrapped around you still
And through it all you seem to feel this time’s been replaced
By the pins beneath your feet your voice when you’re betrayed
A tidal pool a brackish salt is your only draught
I’m here for you now I’ll listen to your fears you thought:
I want to be alone with you
I’m welling up and stagnant I am spooling a thread
A single fraying line that’s pulling you back in
On from the firsts and lasts a subtle mood you passed on
And tied around your knees corporeal and green
And I need you more than you can keep this presence away
In evening we’d concede we’re one and the same
Traversing knots and passageways felt deep in the earth
The quiet go this way forever inert
