If I could be there with you now
I might let you in
Deeply impressed
Still Detached
I'd be up for talking
Maybe just staring at the night
Listening to music
Written for yesterday's war
Life turns these corners and the depth of pain
Has dispelled most of my chutzpah
I have lost
Many times

You should know
Maybe my sorrow would somehow help you to heal
Yourself
Knowing decisions are not answers to life
Momentary lapses in reason
I literally wish I could tap my shoes
And bring us together
Fold myself around your chest
And breathe for you
Because I know you haven't found it yet
That place where it's easy to make it
Through the day
Without a compass

Beautiful mistakes
Written in time
Passed from one phase to the next
Relax in their truth and allow
Their dissolution peacefully
Allow yourself to
Rest quietly without gasping

I'll wait for you
To unmask your passion
And we shall meet again
In the morning when the sun peeks in
Linger with me until it fades away
I see the shadows on your skin
When I close my eyes
I am haunted by that mirror glaze
