shallow sleep



Spinning wheels hitting spider heart fury

the distance is feeling alive, red light abandoned

game over, stumble starstruck

there on cold December beach

looking through us when we touch

when she reaches

when he gives up

when they give it all

when only the blotted bleeding nightmare black clouds remain

static heaven satellite so far away now

lip syncing machine shouting

becoming statuesque

the model

these drowning demons floating in heavy hearts

and if she sleeps he falls away

and if she dreams, he'll help her

and if she shouts he won't hear her

still she'll love him all the same....
