That I would save for you so much life.



We stood above the pouring sound -

They should have seen us -

And ran toward tomorrowgaping open like a shell



Did I say to you, or did I try,

How everything was beating like asea inside?

I felt it overbrimming and flood the ground between us;

And beneath the weightof everything

I let it all come down.



Striving to bindour bodies by every snarl of time we could unwind;

Losing all their lonelinessand making meaning

In the vast experience that buried us alive.



Feeling for the first time

Breaking waves of silence.

Feeling for the last time

I am, I am.



And I could feel me unravelin the foaming fury of love.

And who would weather those hammering fists of rain,

Such as lay claim on you?
