I could leave, but you hold me tight In your arms it’s hard to remember what’s wrong I would rather stay forever So caught up I’d leave me discarded on the floor You are always in my head, perseverating You of the ancient flame, you of the bic lighter It’s like a sickness, susurrating in from all directions I can’t tell cold from fire
How to stand, beneath the weight of it You are everything, the explosion of even creation coming into being I’m lost to this You comfort me, you come for me Drink down all the words I hold My nerves like musical instruments. And leave me to unravel with the fury of my love for you
