...Forever

So I’ll approach
Shameless and broke
With no advantage, and no remorse
I’ll encroach on your hope
Without abandon, my words revoked
I’ll approach
I feel your head
On my shoulder again
Like a phantom pain
Or a powerful gaze
I place my hands
On my sternum and press
To feel the weight of something
Finally leaving my chest
To be a daring ship captain
And wear your red shirt this time
For the right occasion—
In the right mind
I’m supposed to go
So I’ll go
