I go through each day
aware in the darker corners of my mind
that you are wrapped throughout and around
every part of me that is alive.
there is a setting on my brain set to your name
there is a hum in my ears
that oddly resembles your voice when you first wake up in the morning
there is a vague tingling on the tips of my fingers
that mimics the silk fabric of your skin
it’s as if you painted the freckles on my body,
you molded its curves,
you dipped each strand of hair in color
and stenciled my irises with your reflection.
I will hold you,
as you have held me.

in my mouth, in me this is

from the heartlands I'm forsaken, the earth
the heart of (e t e r n i t y)

out to sea, out to (s e a)

It was always the "good night"
That makes you leave
Impatient for the sun
To come and for you to see
How it steals your darkness
From those eyes of yours
But you always keep it closed
And walk the road alone
It was me all along
It has been me all along
I am here
I am now
I forget sometimes
I remember now
I am always here
I can always return
Oh, how easy it is to leave
Oh, how easy it is to forget

I remember now
I have always been here
Right here
Right now
