You kissed me when we said goodbye
And I could feel the place for hours
My hands touched my lips again
With a memory that still burned hot
My patience with your love
Has walked across the bridge of clouds
Where I dwell in a lonely garden
Far from where I lie
Scar my songs
With slivers through my tongue
And blisters bubble on my soul
I can be ice and gone
This cold crevice in which I hide
Tucked within grey stone
To keep me warm
In sadness I abide
My body has not yet
Turned the earth
And warm summer air
Still fills me
But one day my life shall wither
And grow cold
If I cherish only you
And the wrinkles of love run smooth
Please allow us to live together
In a place without time
