Sever

Listen to sleep
For we will meet at that shore
Song presages destiny
Like oracles of lore
Stay and pray
At bedside to some bride
Waiting for dawn
In the dark

Kissing, screaming
Nothing reminds you
We dreamed of this taking
Now you are mine to
Pleased, bereaved
Still and forlorn
Brings forth misgivings
Go on, I'll see you no more

Did you call to offer
Pretense that you cared
Leaving me the markers
Did you fall
Did you falter
In your love at all
Sever once this spirit
Kindred sever love
Did your head become unclouded
Looking through the eyes
Of a dog?

Kissing, screaming
Nothing reminds you
We dreamed of this taking
Now you are mine to
Once awakened, forsaken
Came the morn
