Who can dream of empathy, sitting on a wall, boom of a broken sea, i see her eyes awake, dancing on thorns, she reads me or takes, each day of uncertainty, echoed in my calls, an absence of feeling, who wants to stake, a fear of being torn, so i hesitate, someone asks me, a penny for your thoughts, what about infidelity, so useless really, being a liar adrift forlorn, waiting for the next scene, uncertainty forgets reason, wondering if i'm born, within this season, sat here in the lee, shuddering if i'm caught, this is not me, lemonade for thoughts. we can still blether we've heard the news, we are not tethered, throw away the rope, taking planes home just let us be, do what we say we'd do, faces strong as stones, no need for your views, tickets from the Pen, carry tiny worms of hope, deep within our breasts, don't ask how we slept,
