I kept a couple words you gave to me
Pressed flowers with a blurred intensity
I cut down all the trees I climbed with you
I never spoke the words that rhymed with you
Hey, let’s pretend to be clever and fine
Bring a river to life in your mind
Leaving cuts in the earth over time
All because it refuses to climb
Though I’m sure it could if it tried
I took down all the frames you kept us in
Killed all the little thoughts connecting me to them
There was a time when I thought it would work
I’d cook and you’d make the dessert
And we’d speak what we used to call words
Either side of the bridge as it rots
Over a valley that strangers don’t cross
On the way the sun comes up and falls apart
So the day prepares itself, but does not start
Now, so we come to the last of my thoughts
It may be sad but it’s all that I’ve got
In the morning I’m sure that I’ll be fine
