Like a dream that's come to life In the wake of spider night And my phone light flickers, ephemeral Illuminates them like A sign of change to come Can I remove myself from My winter skin is Shed on the wind Threads like silver scars And I know that you've been hanging on A thread that I've been letting go And I know that you've been letting go A thread that I've been hanging on Until you go Please don't let your love become The closing eye on everyone Until you go And the willow pattern of A cooling coffee cup How the steam rose curling Now it's forgotten Its how we are And the corners came alive And at times you are still inside You are watching from a web that you wove From a tangle you tied And I wrote you letters in my head So many things I've never said But words are only wind and yet The ones that we forget to say Are the ones that we regret
