Pose

The sun is a new
But these tears only brew

When my eyes finally clear
All I see is you near

The very sight of you 
Brings me warmth of the noon

Inhabit my space
That I may receive your stilling grace

Love like the benevolent shears
Of a seaman's fishing spears

That hunt to catch
To feed, To resurrect

By the the power of your passion
That could hear a thousand foreign tunes

Prepare the feasts for it will be roaring
With all of our dancing feet

May we hold each other near 
As this thunder deafens our ears

Bring only what you need
For my loneliness exceeds

The highest of mountains
And the deepest of fountains

For my love was ever stronger 
Like that of a daughter

But nonetheless
I’ll let you rest
