She told him to aim with his heart
like that would keep
him from danger
saw children swarming with flies
and wounded crawling for shelter
the smell of war is in the air
and there's no
stopping the vultures
we could have handled them once
but we forgot what we stand for
Sprung from his beating chest
through veins and to his fingertips
to paper waiting patiently
for words that filled
his heart with fear
but he would not
turn back this time
steadfast he pushed
through every line
watched ink dance
through his last goodbye
and felt this urgent plea
fall from his lips
carry me
carry me
carry me
when my broken body is numb
be my dawn
be my dawn
be my dawn
when these endless nights
stretch on
and in her dreams that night
she saw a phantom
with the ocean in his eyes
the smell of sea foam in his hair
and so she waited on the shore
for him for days
and when she saw his body
borne in by the tide
bobbing gently on the waves
she felt his promise shatter
fall in facets
sparkling like a thousand breakers
catching and refracting the light
from a dying sun
she swam out to him
laid her head against his chest
inhaled through gritted teeth
and cursed the gods
with all her breath
her fury moved them
they cast her soul
into the wind
where it rose above the
waves to be with his
and where they met
two birds of white
sailed out across a sea
as deep as any sea
I've ever known
and close to twilight
when the sun meets the horizon
and the waves
beat out a cadence on the sand
you can hear her
singing softly
in a voice as clear as glass
I will I will carry you
I will I will carry you
I will I will carry you
I will I will carry you
