Cold Light

Hold me in the late blue air Slow turn,

stay right here I

keep circling the same old street

Heavy sky under my feet

If I go quiet,

do you still know

my name

I bend with the night,

then I come back the same

Low

tide

in my chest again

Cold light

on the window frame I let the room breathe through me

I let the dark move carefully

Stay near when the floor gives way

Stay near when the words decay

I keep

that weight

inside the groove

I break, I blur, I

still move

Gone with the last slow train

Still warm in the falling rain
