smoke curled eastward, rising through rose petals
legs in wet grass, sun after the rain
the sacred red morning sun is uplifted on wings
distant flames we remember, when we\'re drunk in the night
you see your name written in the stars, perfectly in place
sanctified in the darkest of days
each vision is a verse in the fading memory of time
down the path of heartbreak our misfortunate dreams entwine
lingering lilac lullaby when my heart sings
I see myself with you in Heaven
falling through you like sand, like glass, like a river
you talk about things so much, they don\'t even matter
you pray for the sun when the sky is getting darker
figure 8, sun signature
bowed down Cupid and drank the fountain of youth
but now your skin is growing old with your wings
I see it on your visage, I pity your self-righteousness
solace pulled like sinew from your mind
heliotropes peeled from the floral wall dressed in secrets
my mother was a seamstress, my father was a sailor
and through all the hills of my land
I look for them in you
I come back to you like a ferocious wave, like candle wick
the dog licks its paws
what a bumbling farce to think, to think
you see your name written in the stars, perfectly in place
sanctified in the darkest of days
each vision is a verse in the fading memory of time
down the path of heartbreak our misfortunate dreams entwine
lingering lilac lullaby when my heart sings
I see myself with you in Heaven
falling through you like sand, like glass, like a river.
