With the color in your eyes ablaze
|
Sleeping but awake
|
Desperately, you're searching for remains
|
To feed that part of you
|
Crawling and scratching
|
Sifting through ashes
|
Your fingers are blistered
|
Right down to the filter
|
The blistering that carved that shape in you all night
|
|
With your chin down to your chest
|
Speech drooling out in a mesh
|
Of baritone slurs, incomprehensible, unaware of what you mean
|
Of baritone slurs, incomprehensible, unaware of how you seem
|
|
Your eyes were just blatant hints at your elevation
|
Allowing the two of you, completion
|
|
Singe your throat when the door is open
|
Beneath the smoke that I can see that,
|
I can see that you have come alive again
|
