Twilight Shy

Your eyes are angels and their slow moves are miracles

They're crystalline, and they're singing to the sky

Stay in the stillness, I'll sink in the vestiges

Of anything, my memory provides

I was standing down, to trace your bitter mouth

I was standing down, and it's all right

The longing evenings when you'd stay

(The stars shook in parade)

Have stalled my dreams of twilight shy and woe be gone

The severed seams fall astray

(To shiver in dead days)

'Cause everything dies someday

Set stark, at angles, sunshine in cylinders

Let's bring it low

Let's cripple and divide

Your eyes catch angels and find us in fever dreams

We never speak

And you're singing to the sky
