two deliverances

hotelier, the

the icons cluttering your bureau

are eyeing me as i walk in. your guardians are present in here

and i trust that they have always been

hiding somewhere in your closet

collecting moisture from your face. your secret world speaks without words

and i feel clumsy and cumbersome in this place. but if i want them too

will they speak to me soon

in a language ripe for my listening?

when the harsh sun breaks in your stained glass eyes

the refracted light keeps glistening. a drapery of clashing fabrics

in every corner of your room. they hung like lace on the whitewashed face

of the walls that are begging you to move

and leave the things that hold a history

as if they're present in your will. a brand new place a few miles away

but i just wasn't sure i was staying still. but if you choose this

too

it's a honest move

and i guess that it makes for no differences. there's a gleam of blue from a cold night's moon. just a touch too soon

two deliverances. on an empty panel floor i lie here for communion

just waiting for one more

but in the quiet empty hours

of my afternoon

what am i supposed to do?

what am i supposed to do?

but if i want them too will they come to me soon?

will they fluctuate between midnight and past noon?

was kind of banking on a future that'd be involving you

but i couldn't ask this of you. i couldn't ask this. in this young night's sky there are pinhole lights. find the shape of a harp and an arrowhead. do i hear your tunes or acknowledge wounds

that i got from rubbing elbows with a sharpened edge?

but if i choose this

too

does it count as my move?

i can't drop my history just to become new. now swimming through the nothingness and the absolute

but i couldn't ask this of you. no

i couldn't ask this.
