In the dark she made a move / he couldn’t see he couldn’t prove / A certain sigh & dark as night / she said she may, she said she might –
A sideways rain, sadistic thing, lashed out in drops (like tiny trains); then gone as if it never came — Is in this way like everything
I fell into you effortlessly; oh, you led me in / We laughed at the unraveling; we willed it to begin -
There was never enough time to make it happen;there was only time for a thousand other things that didn’t matter.Hindsight’s the demon now-
We tried to say it didn’t matter;love,you know it did.When lies are what makes one feel flattered,something’s gonna give–
When we thought we lost the Way it woke us shaking, convulsing, sweating from our sleep… Leaves one hesitant to walk it–
