waiting
waiting for you
there's nothing i need
a light flickers as i wait for you
nowhere, there's nothing, there's never enough
waiting for someone to never show up

the tower
holding a candle against the night
caught up in brambles, i call to you
the moon cracks, and sorrow spills its wretched light
the tower is falling, i crawl to you
holding, falling, holding
we said the words that set the tower falling.
all language is the dreaming of the body.
