Knots

I know that it's hopeless

and you know that that's true,

but death is just a promise

that someone made for you.

I'll wrap myself in darkness

if you're wrapped up there too.

And, if we're being honest,

I'd love no other view.

In the ever-long interim,

while we watch the same sky,

please sing me our hymn

as the clouds pass us by.

Then, I'll kiss your eyelids

and you'll kiss my thighs.

We'll be lost in our limbs,

in the knots that we've tied.
