Dark Arc
Are my eyes set to deep?
Prohibiting the gleam from being seen
while I weep away the shade
Or all my eyes all inside?
just begging for a little leak of light
That's the cost though
to know no shadow
Your gut swallows the sharpened edge
as if pre-perforated
so tell me which one wears the worst?
your sharper spade or harder earth?
We will not be one
We will not be won over
You said we learn from our mistakes
Salt pillars and garden snakes
so I made myself a history buff
only made me more hopeless
We will not be one
We will not be won over
We will not be won
We will not be won over
I want nothing more.
