lyrics

Only you would notice
all these quiet moments spent
teasing me with emptiness
to fill me up… again

I’m whiling the hours
smelling all the flowers
my fingers still lingering,
trying to find...
The imprint that you left behind,
flooding the wedding bed,
flushing my cheeks with red and
shutting out the light

And I will not force it
like bones into a corset
squeezed into place,
the curve of a line
that you walked alongside me,
brambles and ivy,
I wept for the magic
you left for me to find

If I close my eyes I imagine you, Stormy --
rain spilling over you, your eyes wet and light
I thought I’d come out of this all
sweetness and sticky,
but you left my skin all dotted with your sweet, salty brine

You left my skin all dotted with brine…

Teasing me with emptiness, the Ocean’s concubine
