I would have pulled the sword
and struck off that ear
then I would have run and hid
I know
I know
My water walk would have
ended waist deep in desperation
while my denial
would not have stopped with three
but three times three times three
ad nauseum ad infinito
if you are my heart then beat
if you are my light then shine
if you are my life then breathe
if you are my song then sing
i am scarce
be my abundance
