before life retreats

oh lover had not forgotten
down three steps
the door on west side
i open
for patterned the pag'an go
swirling mists lost in the word chisel
she sculpts eternity
but I won’t lie to you
broken pieces
protest the
last century and done to
depend on breathing
rock and back
I feel magnificently alone
smooth sculpted marble convinced
my toad that one was
her cricket
before life retreats
leaving only memories
to believe in you
down three steps
the door on west side
i open
for patterned the pag'an go
swirling mists lost in the word chisel
she sculpts eternity
but I won’t lie to you
broken pieces
protest the

depend on breathing
rock and back
I feel magnificently alone
smooth sculpted marble convinced
my toad that one was

before life retreats
leaving only memories
to believe in you
