I wish I could sit in your head all day
lay bricks around me, layer after layer
mixing the cement with a vengeance
building my sarcophagus

I wish I could look through your milky eyes
and drink in the sunset through your pupils
nourishing my body for eternity

I wish you could hear me speak to you
lapping up the poetry you whisper
as I lay on more bricks

I'll make you my tomb yet
Your voice my eulogy
