I have ached for you
From bone to skin
I have ached for you
With an ache that defies gravity
Every movement of mine
Is halved by your absence
And doubled with the hope that the distance is
Breaking
Every so often when I speak out a word
It lies
Ringing in the air like it needs
To be stilled in your mouth
And every so often I
Ache for you
Heart to vein to vein
Like every new pump of life
Is flowing life into
You
And sometimes
I swear I look into the mirror
And whisper
'Appear'.
From bone to skin

Ringing in the air like it needs
To be stilled in your mouth
And every so often I
Ache for you
Heart to vein to vein
Like every new pump of life
Is flowing life into
You
And sometimes
I swear I look into the mirror
And whisper
'Appear'.
