Sun leaves the day 
we forgot our bones till we’re kissed with the breathless 
cold, and the light 
we forgot these colors die with the darkness 
dark, in the dark… 

Faith, run away 
I have chosen to be bound by these towers 
saved it is safe 
we forgot the shape of the question still forming 
blind, it is blind 
keep me safe these castles 
feeling feels fearsome bold, 
it is bold, and I hold the rungs 
of the ladder I’m climbing in the 
dark — in the dark 
we forgot these colors die without the light 
this is light 
we forgot to look till we see only absence 

Sitting before the moon 
she asked for a vision 
bless me with sight 
and all came in swift and soon 
words to the wisdom 
blessings of tongue 
and tangled ‘tween life and grave 
grave was the pulling 
life was she calling 
tangled ‘tween life and grave 
allowing herself to become all her fears 
at once was she life and grave 
allowing herself to become all her fears 
at once was she life and grave 
allowing herself to become… 

Sun leaves the day 
we forgot our bones till we’re kissed with the breathless 
cold, and the light 
we forgot to look till we see only absence 
dark, in the dark 
we forgot these colors die without the light 
this is light 
we forgot the shape of the question still forming
