My Captain

bore through my skin
and change my face
change my name
magically and tantrically
bear me a newborn
his hands will take you upwards
your body will never fail
even as they come closer
my captain won’t stand still
your hands will take you upwards
your body will never fail
even as they come closer
my captain won’t stand still
won’t stand still
to bear me up a newborn
new moon
it can’t stand still
bear me up a newborn
new moon
