Chicago from Metanoia by fixer

I said I'd love it in Chicago
River flowing brown & green
Maybe blue if you don't haunt me
What is there for me
Buy a pair of shoes in the city,
the same kind you got for me
You know, the ones with the silver lining
I'll find a home for my feet

But then the water struck a note
like you struck me too
It came too soon
& the bridge was reflecting the sun like sheets
of morning dew
that afternoon
I followed you

I said I'm here if you need me
& I stand on sandy shores
waiting for the tide to wash over
& retreat once more,
once more

I once knew beauty in the form
of a girl,
who I thought you were
But then you shifted shapes
& returned into
the real you
We once knew loving only true
in the room
where I changed you
If only I knew
how to change you once more,
once more,
once more,
once more
