Moorings

Unanchored undertaker They say Her fingers forsake her With their tips cascading untethered But I'll deny my ungrounding, These alarms I'm re-sounding But I'm floating in contours But I'll stay together. I could better map my ambition than you, Warm apparition For your curve is sharper than sabers. Could I beg for your patience Through my stumbling cadence But the air in my words comes now labored. And my dear, I've swallowed stones, The weight of jaded bones To hold me down, But you cast my moorings away. But you lean, Could you reach? I will sing and I'll beseech you To hold me? Could you grasp me? Could you stay? Your murmurs Indented my Skin-deep defenses, Have I weathered this tempest before? But in my paradigm tilt please, Say my name as I wilt So I know when my divesting's secured. And I will cling to your grips To your holds and to your lips, And I will plant my soles firm in this soil. For if my body is rooted, Though my heart's been looted I'll stay if fear urges my love to recoil. And my dear, I've swallowed stones, The weight of jaded bones To hold me down But you cast my moorings away. But you lean, Could you reach? I will sing and I'll beseech you To hold me? Could you grasp me? Could you stay? And my dear, I've swallowed stones, The weight of jaded bones To hold me down But you cast my moorings away. But you lean, Could you reach? I will sing and I'll beseech you To hold me? Could you grasp me? Could you stay?
