your eyes once were the shade of blue
the way the sky looks
before the sun gives way to the moon
but they are black as midnight now
the starless sky, pitch-dark
oh, what did i do?
did i cause this to you?
your wings, broad and strong
flew me to paradise and back
and to everywhere my feet can’t take me
but you’re featherless now
flightless and short of harbor
oh, fly, please, fly again
feel the wind and fly back to me once more
*
but i’m still broken, darling,
i don’t deserve your loving
The least thing I wanna do is break you.
