I tied you upside me in a knot we can't undo
and patiently I wait for you beside the aging moon
through all of its eclipses and the phases we have seen
I find you in the daylight and the spaces in between
you're not as much aware of me as I would like to think
but when you talk in circles I will never let you sink
there's something in the water I was given long ago
that settles any longing we could ever care to know
I share what I was offered and accepted with my heart
the only thing I carry that will never fall apart
whatever has intruded is whatever we've allowed
a tangle with intentions to destroy us inside out
