There are longer goodbyes

There are longer goodbyes
In the shadow of our forgetfulness

Looking at the peripheral you
Become a part of the penumbra

Writing you out we will make a new story
One with four walls and a window onto the world

One from which sea and sky
Shine with the faint reflection of us

 

There are tales to recount
Yet none come to mind with you around

Hoping for the right word
Has never felt truer than
When hoping for you

The sun shines full and we
Sing no song we are too busy burning

Stories written in flame often carry the ashes of what was out of sight then

 

Find a single note
To remember us by

It might ring ever so tenuous
Until tomorrow's magic

Reading signs of a begining
echoes tragedies of the past

Break the entanglement for it is
The only true poetry
For you to shimmer throughout time

Beyond the veil of our love
