AMBER
I keep telling myself this pain is just a temporary hitch,
That it will work its way through anger and regret;
I keep telling myself this night is just a temporary hitch,
That the sun will never abandon forever
Its habit of lifting
Its golden weight through each new dawn;
I keep telling myself that the amber lures
Of honey, sunshine, ale, and holiday skin
Will pull me ritually through the dark,
To where the cage of days is just a temporary hitch.
And here is where I sit
In the silence broken only by
The stubborn sound, this beating heart:
I keep telling myself it's just a temporary hitch.
I keep telling myself this pain is just a temporary hitch,
That it will work its way through anger and regret;
I keep telling myself this night is just a temporary hitch,
That the sun will never abandon forever
Its habit of lifting
Its golden weight through each new dawn;
I keep telling myself that the amber lures
Of honey, sunshine, ale, and holiday skin
Will pull me ritually through the dark,
To where the cage of days is just a temporary hitch.
And here is where I sit
In the silence broken only by
The stubborn sound, this beating heart:
I keep telling myself it's just a temporary hitch.
