gimme

you're right here
but I can't reach you
you're by my side
but what's beneath you

i lend an ear
just to hear you 
there's something there 
say what you need to

Weigh me down 
the meaning binds me
I'll stare into you
lost in findings

tell me things 
that I should hear
let your sweet venom
tickle my ear

let's smile again
and hold each other 
the time for it's now
might not be another.

hold tight

"Come back to me!"
He screeched into the dawn
Knowing full well she was no longer his
Time spent sculpting wasted elsewhere
He swept her up but lost her too
Is he even worth praising?

His palms bled bright red with her blood
He waived them at passers-by
Why shift the burden of the weight
Another man will surely collect

But then she's gone, no longer his
He had her there! But now no more.
The seeds he sewed in boredom surely
Led to his own desctruction as fate foretold

And now he sits upon stoops of longing
The gentle breeze of her blows feverently
"Come back to me!"
He yelled into the darkness
He was hers
But he lost her.
