Exeunt |
I was all alone, we were young, you were like wine |
Heady as the fog rolling in o’er the hillside |
Lovely as the song in the air as the wind blows |
Opiate as the cold of the frost on the windows |
Lo, the rose is gone from my eyes (so deceiving) |
So, my little dove, I’m afraid I am leaving |
Now, I am not the fool I was when I was younger |
Crocodile eyes, I have seen how you hunger |
Fluttering your lashes, like ashes and embers |
Warm and bright as fire devouring timber |
No, I cannot trust what you say when you’re grieving |
So, my love, I’m sorry, but still: I am leaving |
Even when you hunt me with ire, relentless |
Batter down my door when you find me defenseless |
I will not abide all your raging and reaving |
I have set my mind and my will: I am leaving |
