lyrics

it was on
the first snow
in the city's park
that through december's
receding dark
you glistened

it was under
my worry
and dead treetops
beneath bare branches
and the tower clock
you listened

it was then
now years ago
that we would start
clenching tight body parts
wishing never to stop

it was while
walking by
the Christmas lights
on that unfamiliar night
that decided
the rest of my life

the chimneys seemed like steeples
in the streetlamp's stark scene
across the block

you left me waiting
with a rough heart
like bark
you left me wanting
your pale skin
like chalk

waiting for you like a train
to depart
watching for you in the streetlamp's stark

i'm wading through the iris of your wide eyes
and writhing for you to be all mine
