Like Slow Disappearing

Three-sixteenths of an inch
Disappear right behind your lips
We were waiting and watching the light in the sky and it hurt my eyes
I guess that it must have been then
We slipped out of our cagey heads
And got tangled and lost and dove further out into it all again

And I was afraid
But you were glowing like the most relieving light
You were my revealing light

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached
You stayed with me after the moment passed
I felt you
Buried deep under my chest
Like my lungs when I'm breathing in
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again

Over our heads in a daze
We sat and watched while the setting changed
Into something I read in a book that I loved when I was young
I fixed my stare to the screen
A show with a monster was on the TV
It was early October and all of the yards were alive with lights

And I was afraid
But you were glowing like the most relieving light
You were my revealing light

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached
You stayed with me after the moment passed
I felt you
Buried deep under my chest
Like my lungs when I'm breathing in
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were attached
You stayed with me after the moment passed
I felt you
Buried deep under my chest
Like my lungs when I'm breathing in
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes again
