lyrics

Oh forlorn lover, in summer, unfurl -
like some vast, florid map, unfurl.
we’re distant lands, touching somehow,
a gently rocking boat; sweetly rippling borders.
and in this airborne moment, we’re two forms suspended,
and opaque architectures shape your shadow -

If I could still all motions, and listen,
quietly, perfectly, I’d descend
into that delicate, dreaming realm of
our breaths, in sync for an instant -
hand in hand with the infinite.

Oh, sleepy protectors of two gentlest solitudes,
geographies are shaped within your trust.
The water is a mirror shattered by our falling;
silhouettes night-swimming in July -
all skin speckled with moonlight,
mid-lake; silence but for our breathing.

July 2016
