I tried to undiscover you
I tried to discover you
but you were gone
gone
gone
gone
I saw your shadow
on the moon last night
while you call
call the ocean
to your toes that
sink in the sand
they have built a
vault in the arctic
to hold a seed
from every land
do you feel the tide is rising ?
I will heal my broken arms around
your waist of pillared salt
I will trace the names of the dead with eyelashes
against your wall
I felt a cloud of your breath pass through my cold, unfurling hair
let's christen this place a secret
hid between the here and there will you raise your voice to the morning
will you raise your voice
Hallelujah !
Hallelujah !
Harken harken
with you limbs of leather, you are paralyzed
I lifted up your face up, up to the heavens
but you closed you eyes
harken harken
the winter surrenders shadows lift their heavy hand
the locusts in their subterranean kingdom
divvy up their land will I see your face once more, one more
before I leave this place ?
I thought I saw your figure go,
but all that was left was a golden glow
