White air Tight air A room that won’t repair Words turn wire low fire a cage that won’t expire Humidity bruised The window screwed to a view I never choose Your eyes pass through me see-through like truth that never knew me Shards repeat hard beat a mute scream under my feet Time like a spine I climb in a crooked line I drown… on breath alone I fade… on breath alone I fray… on breath alone I break… on me alone I love you From me: refusal From you: removal Two hearts pinned, no approval We smile meanwhile a room with no arrival Your voice my only choice the only dose that cut the noise But you’re gone I drag the dawn pull yesterday, already gone I drown… in memory I fade… in memory I fray… in memory I break… in only you You hate me My world worked with only you in it Your world hurt with only me in it My mind runs red thread by thread drip by drip from words unsaid the only thing still beautiful I drown… though still… loved you I fade… though still… loved you I fray… though still… loved you I break… though still… loved you Nothing’s left… still… loved you Nothing’s left… still… loved you Nothing’s left… still… loved you Nothing’s left… still… loved you Shine on me
