Hiraeth

Silent thoughts
The moments start wandering off,
So I watch.
As I stare into the night,
branches crack the sky.
I regret trying.
Heart removal
This is evil, every secret
buried in holes
Keep digging,
and find the stones that I tripped over.
When you left me on the ground
Feathers you stole
Let me drown in your eyes
Is it safe on this side?
Placement, Fibers
Each thread is what
separates me and you,
closest to the edge.
Humans leap off.
I reached out for you.
Humans leap off.
I reached out.
Did anybody hear your parting words?
I think about it all the time.
When you left me on the ground
Feathers you stole
Let me drown in your eyes
Is it safe on this side?
You’re far,
Watched you drift away
across infinite waves.
You’re to blame.
What arms will reach out in grace
and bring me across so we don’t separate?
Time is here now,
it’s neck in my hands.
Pressing harder…
Pressing like it’s an empty tube.
Time is here now,
it’s neck in my hands.
Pressing harder…
Pressing like it’s an empty tube.
Time is here now.
It takes your hand like a bible, erasing memories
You’re an empty tube.
