this is where I leave you
I've learnt to abate those sunny mornings
lasting centuries without bathing in your smile
turning each side of my path
into a stream of flowing air

this is where I leave you
what are we to talk about
our name growing eyes growing roots
turning inestimable feel into
density impenetrability silence

this is where I leave you
before I am I will be old
one day in love I will look through my death
to repel myself from your step
spilling over me
