one cloud
grazed
heaven's gates

i thought
of god
of his saints

it's all fallen to
nothing
and i let it go

i've let my
breathing
slow

one cloud
has faded
white to blue

and now
i turn
to you

drooped sunflowers
rot
in my chest

still putting
me to
the test

be still young fool
though love
now fails

listen
a clock ticks
driving deep your nails

time's cruel winds will soften your restless sea
caught in her haunting gales remember me
