there.

Today passed by
Like the slow textures of rain
without time

A moment spent
beneath the mountain
in wrapping threads

A moment spent
underwater
in drowning beds

Taught me to
drop gravity
& unsink stones

And now that I have grown
I'll leave my wings behind

another creature
will wear those symbols
to learn they could always fly

the Milky way
beckons forth

the stars in your eyes
the moon in your soul

these pieces of you
fit the shapes
Of an empty soul

Riding the long night highway
Toward the ocean floor

we'll sink toward death till we're
close enough to breathe in real

We'll sink toward death long enough
to know salvation

I'm sick with the stars in your eyes
I'm delirious with the body in our sorrow

Wrap me in the flesh of it
Push me in it's water
