Something short of
Reasoning
Kept me tethered to
This place
A little breath for
Giving
& a brilliant change of
Pace
If you speak
A little low I may just
understand
But the more
You sink into my
Bones
The more that I
Demand
You're quick to laugh
As I'm fast to feel
& If we call each other's
Names
So spins the aching
Wheel
We see the tide as it
Creeps in to sing its
Gorgeous depth to us
& I'll forever wonder if
You intend to be so
Inconspicuous
We'll never know what time
Will tell
In all that's harsh and true
So promise me that
By the bell
You'll bid your sweet
Adieu.
