Stone Intact

Pure desire a giant stone
Names I carve and cast a moan

Their absence is a mineral
Inorganic – beautiful
And so I keep carving names
Until nothing's left of the stone
I found intact

All affairs that make thee
We bind to memory
(Feast on detailed dreams)
On the distant darkened line
We dance towards the dawn
Oh baby can't you see?

Blood in my veins
Tears on my cheeks
This is my gain
Drawn from the rain

Flesh on my bones
Skin on my flesh
Love moves alone
Leaving us prone

Within, I plant a tree
At night I watch it grow
In your fairness
