I watch in quiet as your bones
Expand with restful breath
And hear the earthly undertones
Of breathing soft as death
I sit still so as not to wake
You from this short-lived peace
I’d not this solace from you take
Ere morning’s sweet release
I watch in quiet as your bones
Expand with restful breath
And hear the earthly undertones
Of breathing soft as death
I sit still so as not to wake
You from this short-lived peace
I’d not this solace from you take
Ere morning’s sweet release
