Cushion grooves where you just were
Left me full for a short while
Current that cannot occur
Thoughts of shroud beneath your smile

What/which world would we prefer?
Escape scrapes of this lifestyle
I can't grasp what you infer
Am I clear or am I vile?

Holding close and holding tough
Buried heads in blanket seas
Compunction but not enough
Contrast bliss in being teased

Daylight's brief caress: a bluff
Quivered in your melodies
Tried to soothe the coming slough
Kissed my grief and lent me ease
