all i got is my poetry
and in deep blue
i think of all the hues
that we dreamt of.i don't want to think
of the things to come,
in deepest shade
i wait and hold to
those stagnant waters
i've known so long.it hangs like funeral lilies over me,
and i see them all weeping for me
in white sunshine, won't tell them
how i was unkind, the worst kind.won't tell them about my dreams,
won't tell them about those velvet seams --
won't tell them about the hell fire waiting for me
won't tell them how i saw it gleam --and i don't know why,
don't understand this alien ocean,
that is my flesh and bone
and my tears like stone to sink
down to the seabed;
my solemn head to rest there,(still with your breath at my nape --)
