21:20, sep. 20th (moon half full)

When i open my eyes, i'll know the time By the line of the trees, the scent of the breeze Hemlock and pine The sun's waning height, golden light in your eyes The pulse in your fingertips, where your hand meets mine When i close my eyes, you still fill my mind With the taste of your lips, the shifting of hips Our bodies entwined My nails on your skin, leaving trails of where i've been Your breath on my neck, your marks on my chest I need you again You can count on the mountains to move They need to, to lead me back to you The night's sky alight in pale blue You showed me the half full moon I stay where it's safe, just like you used to say I watch the sea, advance and retreat I'm the shore you're the waves With each empty breath, my lungs know you less The heart on my sleeve took some time to reseat Itself in my chest You can count on the mountains to move They need to, to lead me back to you The night's sky alight in pale blue You showed me the half full moon
