some things remain
the way the red earth stains
lingering
in longing
we’ll laugh until we think we’ll die
i’ve said too much
i’ve set it up
only love is on the move
is it enough?
fallen far behind
or is it already there
that i find
what i’ve known all along
only lined
only more beautiful
only more kind
be there?
would you really rush out?
soft and slow it starts
beauty and rage dance it out
i’m a fool
but a fool for
beauty’s sake
would we have it any other way?
come on
whisper now
oh creature fear
and meet me there
distance near
is anything clear?
surprise is constant
pour a little salt
my, my, my
by night i’ll know
in memory
by day i’ll recall
in reverie
so ready
we wait
and it means the world
absolutely the world
to know
to have
to rest in
what it is
to say friend
