Leaving Shore

You were the turn I didn’t see Off every sign-lit road Dust on my laces Your taste in my name And nowhere felt like home Your laugh, a little compass Spins circles under skin Every step a question mark And every mark says: “in” Loving you feels like leaving shore No map - just open blue Weightless, restless, falling Through every frame I move The skyline shifts its promise I shift my breath there too Every beat becomes a doorway And it opens into you We read the future in your cup In foam and folded lists We fight over a shadow Then fade into a kiss Your jacket on my shoulders Gas-station neon rain We miss a turn, miss a moment - Still catch the same refrain Loving you feels like leaving shore No map - just open blue Weightless, restless, falling Through every frame I move The skyline shifts its promise I shift my breath there too Every beat becomes a doorway And it opens into you Maybe there is no landing Maybe we’re made for height Living in the in-between Of last call, first light If the stars keep rearranging I’ll follow what rings true Close my eyes, walk through the hush And it opens into you Loving you feels like leaving shore No map - just open blue Weightless, restless, falling Through every frame I move The skyline shifts its promise I shift my breath there too Every beat becomes a doorway And it opens into you
