SEA GLASS

Ashes are all that’s left of this love
Eyes burn in the sandstorm
Your threshold’s not where you thought

Outside your door
I’m stumbling unsure
There’s no one else I’d rather waste away the daylight for
There’s one word that we won’t speak
So I’ll fix my gaze upon your face
And hope your lips unleash those perfect teeth

Sifting for sea glass
Worn out
Waters crash where we’re sat
To remind us that
Even this land could break
And this distance between us can be washed right out
Or would you rather drown?

Outside your life
I’m tangled in my strings bleeding for your knife
A puppet on your hand I’ll speak only on command
There’s one word that we wont say
I’ll just disintegrate
And wait for the haze to break away
But am I too late?

IN THE AMBULANCE
WHERE THEY TRIED AND TRIED
BUT COULD NOT LOCATE MY SPINE
THERE WAS A BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT THAT I CHASED
And at the end I heard the siren sing your name

I’M SORRY BUT THE TRUTH IS THAT I
NEVER REALLY KNEW
WHAT WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO
AND WHEN THE MORNING FINALLY CAME
IT WAS CLEAR
There was one thing left to say…
