I know exactly where I was when I
First saw you the way I see you now
through these eyes waiting to retry
Those pristine days
I recall so fondly
So few are trials
when a life isn't lonely
and now if only
I'd never felt it I'd never heard it
I know I loved you did
I even deserve it
when you returned it
There's no suspicion no hesitation
Believing through
the eyes of sore adoration
Witness and know fracture and hurt
Eyes in the fire blink unrehearsed
Shield like a house
closing its doors
Curved in the dark rinses of yours
Ashtray is crowded bottle is empty
No music plays and nothing moves
with out drifting into a memory
Busy apartment
no room for grieving
Sink full of dishes
and no trouble believing
that you are leaving
Mid sentence tremors
mind at its weakest
One way of shaking off the
thoughts that it sleeps with
Witness and know fracture and hurt
Eyes in the fire blink unrehearsed
Shield like a house
closing its doors
Curved in the dark rinses of yours
In walks the darkness
I pitch without you
Asks me do I realize what I'd done
and who I'd done to
indeed I do know
It never leaves me
just visits less often
It isn't gone
and I won't feel its grip soften
without a coffin
Breathing beside me
feeling its warmness
Phantom affection gives a human
performance
Witness and know fracture and hurt
Eyes in the fire blink unrehearsed
Shield like a house
closing its doors
Curved in the dark rinses of yours
