Jul 2014
it starts with your name
lay me down
so we can begin again
i kneel by your side
like a practice at the pulpit
swallowing whole sins you may have owned
beforehand
i stare straight past
all we have seen
because i want to believe
there's a lot more left
for you and i
so, show me this time
while i'm on the floor
while you have me
undivided, unhinged
knees bent toward
all my love for you
what it is
i just can't live without
