Do my hopes smother your dreams
to wake up and hear my screams
I’ve been waiting for the good in
your noose
But you’re still swinging there
in spite of its torture and truth
Do my hopes shatter your eyes
the tears that break in stride
I never mentioned the distance
I’d go
For the mortar and to hear it’s blow
Do my hopes sink in your world
to face down and drown this little girl
I have now until forever for you
to wait for the sun and strangle
its moon
