The world is whirling inwards

My heart is bleeding sand

Your eyes are bright blue glaziers

Melting in my hand

Our life is contradictions

Trouble seldom comes

But we create the mass of it by twiddling our thumbs

Midnight's seems ages away

Night hesitates to rise

We want the sun to hide away

With darkness comes surprise

The world is winding itself up

My heart is coughing dust

Your glazier blue eyes melting fast

Your steel heart forms rust

Her mascara runs down her chin

Isn't it the simplest thing?

Her lips left behind, bright coral on a napkin

It arouses the curiosity of those who come across it

Doesn't it make you wonder

How a stray little thing

Can get blown out of her purse

Into the wind

And the fool who captures it

Will wonder days on end

Over what is so meaningless

Isn't it the simplest thing?

I hate you more than words my dear

I'm tangled up in endless fear

A kiss or two

We come unglued

Spiraling in intimacy

Only you could do this to me

I love you less than words sweet darling

Purr like a kitten in pain, pleasure's not gain

Take notice of what you're starting.
