If I could wrap myself in the earth and tell her all of my secrets so they disappeared into the bedrock

I would lie on her forever whispering stories she’s heard over and over

The Earth and Moon fell to eachother in a blinding crash before they became satellites

Each in turn turning

Spinning around

I want to look down on you with love and affection as you spin in time

As you rotate through time

In the swamp of my mind you’re always there

Slowly creeping in but you’re the only ever I ever wanted

Sitting on the precipice

Waiting for the day when I can watch you quietly again

In that memory I hope you feel better

In that memory it’s a tunnel vision the second I see you

The rest of the night woven together in pictures and sounds

They always see me,

I wonder why you never do.
