K. from Hypnopompia by This Is Not a Place Of Honor

I remember you were too
Anxious to ask me for my
Hand
You asked me to draw on it
As an excuse to try and
Hold
Before long I was standing
In a gift shop waiting to
Go
Out the door and up a trail
To a sand bar next to the
Falls

I stole those rings because you were
Watching Me
I tried to buy them but you were
Watching me
I stole those rings because you were
Watching Me
I tried to buy them but you were
Watching me

I was never any good
At making eye contact with
Anyone
And then I met you with those
Three islands in a sea of
Blue
So it came as no surprise
When you gave yours back it was
Met
With darted looks, deflection
And unable to meet your
Eye

I wanted to tell you I was
Falling apart
I was lost in thought while we were
Falling apart
I wanted to tell you I was
Falling apart
I was lost in thought while we were
Falling apart
