Cassiopeia

Messages on clementine rinds For once in my life I don't know how to feel You taste like pennies And that's alright with me The both of us are breathing In each other's ears Our secrets speak different languages Still your whisper's clear With you I feel grapefruit juice Running in my blood I'm just a little confused What to think of us Am I dreaming Is it even you Cassiopeia Kiss me blue Like the dragons in the parking lot Ever heaving, flames and then exhaust Constellate our fears with cinnamon sticks Let's connect the stars Help me hold the heavy parts of a heart Feel me from afar Many moons of waiting on a steady sun Now I freeze in fear Merge our fingernail horizons Swear you'll catch my tears Maybe sometime you can teach me How to hold on to your hand Maybe next time when I'm bleeding I can call across the sand And when the ocean takes the lipstick from my face Might you be there And as I'm walking empty steps in place Will you hear my prayer Am I dreaming Is it even true Cassiopeia Show me what I'm meant to do Like the angels in the submarine We hold water with our weighted wings
