Lioness We are shaped by your slumber Etched in a past of knowing Of knowing who you were So faintly tangible in memory Beyond the anecdotal history Her Her cells reside inside this body At least as long as I look up At the lioness Oooooo At the lioness Lioness In your absence we are primed for loss Three years of timelessness Of knowing who you were No longer moisturised by novelty I'm finding sentience in lily trees Her Translucent palms will always carry me The very fabric of the earth Woven from a star that never leaves Suspended into view on remembering To put out the light And look up And look up And look up And look up And look up At the lioness Aaaaaaah At the lioness Aaaaaaah At the lioness Oooooooo Oooooooo Ooooooooooo
