cfter movement. cfter song. cfter all the guests are gone. Softer edges ossify.
Gargoyle at the break of dawn. Eyes upon the darkening stain. cs it spreads across the picture frame. Before the faces disappear. Burn the image in my brain. You know what you can do. But you won't. You know that you have to. Let it go. Saw you in a dream before. Standing at my open door. I would wait to watch you go. Follow you out in the cold. The noise surrounds me. Everything's dissolving out of the scene. The waves are pounding. Swallowed all the buildings into the sea. Now we're returning. Every part of you I feel in me.
