Porcelain/Sunrise

You with the marble eyes

Fragile with porcelain bones

You look at the stars and you wonder why

Are you as hungry as I?

 

I can't see me or someone I used to be

I can't see you now

or someone who used to be you

Are you someone new?

Are you someone I used to know?

Have you been there before?

Have you seen me before?

 

When was the last time you cried

I think it was centuries ago

A stake through the heart and sunrise

Will keep me away
