You are asleep
To
Tell it true
And truth comes naturally when I
Find you here
But gone and deaf and
Full of forgiveness
(How is it I still fear you)
Though I know it's you
And I
As you've told me through
Years gone by and
Bye
You said
goodbye
In another time
(Three. Three times.)
After leading me past barred doors and into
Open night
Where you gave me keys and showed me locks and gave me
Sight
There were bottles
Wines
(Southern comfort, jimador)
That I drink alone
Anymore
(You are still mine, I know, my heart, my one and only
Though you are gone from me
And have led me through
Jungles steeped with dark
With only your voice
To follow.
I am not
One or the same)
The rain heavy on my window
Reminding me of panes of glass
That keep me dry
Yes, they're there
Like your smoky scent was
Always there
With the dryer sheets and
Locomotive pulse
(I remember
Though I can't forget the
Pieces you left me in
So many times
And always with promises of
Never
Again)
I would that you'd stay and
Sleep here
By me
Like I wrote in
Every letter
