she said you remind me of someone i used to know
it wasn't yesterday
some ages ago, romance was the prevailing tongue
i feel your tomorrow i am somewhat more alive
i said you remind me of a time the kind i never used to know
i saw you there
renaissance girl
wood fire burns in a circle in the centre on the shore
we all gathered there to remove ourselves from the shades
that pass over head and hide the light of the skies
i thought that we shone of our own light...
faint... still we're burning
i remember a sense of peace as i held you in my arms
a body breathing almost sleeping you held my mind
she said you remind me of someone i used to know
the time lies heavy on your eyes
even when you smile
i can read it like a book
i do not want to stop
but as we speak
a future is birthed by
parting:
love-child of the sunset
who will always be but with different eyes
renaissance girl, she said
it's evident that separate ways call from the shades
but at least we'll have yesterday
but at least we'll have yesterday
just ages ago
we scattered went our separate ways
like birth pains
like tidal waves
the way luna lures the foam farther up the shore
it was clockwork
it was time
it was easy
i lie
