What did you see? How have you been? There are lines that never end And from the day that I could talk I had to know How will I live Without a body? A man believes A woman needs You measure time By how you breathe The road erodes Under my feet Inside the snow A woman sleeps I’m making sounds I can’t control I push the day Into a hole I hang my shirt Up on a nail Beside the sea And swimming deep Into the dark My shadow moves With, then without, me The only place I ever lived I found a home I lost a friend A tired moon Falls on the street And on the tides That carry me I tried to speak To someone beyond me The only face I’ve ever seen Was all around me
