in rime

i fail to do what i'm trying

i've these walls

and everyone who dies hears others times

this immediacy is unknown to me

and appears to be unreached

by everyone i've known

show me unfocused fears in disguise

it shows me i must live to die

this lake is on fire

it's been every dream to me

it's been every desire

i awaken

filling up the space

i back away

and it covers me up all cozy

these waves are the call of time

what's sent ahead is sent behind

as in rime
