Steal away - to Oceans forged
From dregs of memories
Them - cast - by frail hands
Turned ironclad by faith
...
I heal my heart by the dwindled flame
That settles in my soul
Its dimming now - I see it fade
The light flickers in the mirror
...
I wrote a letter to my only love
The papers curled with devotion
Though little did the letter budge
For weighted down
...
Loosely held - is love pinned to me
My lapel boasts his presence
And in my glass - sherry rests
And in this way - I be the guest
...
