Painting Futures Red

I’ve called a thousand times to hear your voice on a thousand nights
And i’ve closed my eyes to see the shapes your lips make when you speak
The words that you give to me when i’m sad
I’ve watched them burst language at its seams
And brighten my darkness and make me brave
I’ll take you out
We’ll spiral and tangle and dance away the night
And waltz the canal
We’ll go home exhausted and dream the rest of our
Lives together
When you float into my thoughts you’re like a princess
With an angels kiss
Who dances around me and keeps me safe
I’ll take you out
We’ll go out
