i know you, now
hope mc May 2016
you're only a year away from downing
i'll tell you now that i care
before i turn into a shipwreck
from your waves

bar lights and starry nights
my veins were aligned with
the wood of other hearts
and then i saw you

i looked two hundred feet down
to a world of spikes
painted on with dried blood
since it was where i had one slept

he smiled at a girl kissed by the moon
and wondered why she loved the stars
(fall for a galaxy
and you'll never find ground)

you're only a year away from drowning
and i'm just a shipwreck
waiting to be discovered

— The End —
