Lucile

You tied me up

You held out

Made me shake

What is love

A game to you

I hope the storm

doesn't carry you

Out of my arms

Words poison

gilding our prisons

Through field through, narrow valleys

Over the hills

Through no fault of your own

Cracked the ice and slipped to the unknown

What is love

All the while I dreamed of you

Dancing out of a windowless room

May I always be a gateway for you

All along I thought of you

Once a king forever a fool

High storm

tracks by the river

Old snags and crows

Watching you shiver
