Stumble

give just a little

take just a few
help me to find some deeper meaning
in the version that I know of you
 
leave me feeling breathless
find me wanting more
is it always an invitation
when I open wide this door
 
little words flirt all around me
and suggestions do implore
hope has this way of unbinding me
but leaves me shaking on the floor
 
a crack of light between the floorboards
wider cracks along the walls
a feeling I should run, escape from
begs me hither and enthralls
 
I don't know where I'll find you
nor where you'll chance upon me
I don't know where we stand
or who we seem to pretend to be
