When I sing to corvines to slumber,
I wish I could carve out my heart,
engrave it into a rose and rock it gently to sleep.
but birds are cold blood and travel south in the winter.
So now I'll just cuddle up to my insomnia
and wake 20 years later on a damp pillow
and my trembling body of the ghost thats left inside my hollow bones.
