9 and 1

Your tear drops on beach rocks inscribing
Like your head on my shoulder reclining
Even the city lights can’t dilute this night
In my memory your smile’s still blinding

Your hand holding mine as we’re praying
So coy, I’m the boy that you’re playing
Just a toy in your arms, you’re all wonder and charms
And you can’t hear a word that I’m saying

Your mask fits me too I can feel it
As the tide washes in, you reveal it
Confused and dismayed, yet it’s love that we played
And again as if heartache can heal it

And fear is my poison, my true vice
While you were my gamble and my price
The cost of the truth, was lost to me and you
And by then we both knew not to think twice

Your goodbye was ever enchanting
Your words winter wolf’s breath left panting
Surrounded on all sides, waiting for the cold bite
I might die with your friends still ranting

Your mark on the shoreline is gone now
And in autumn, without you I fall down
My roots dug too deep, guess that’s why I can’t sleep
As the air grows too cold for this song
