Film

There's a listen in your ear 

And an arrow in your blood 

I gut the belly of your compass 

I search hard 

I breathe every step 

I turn away and find 

You 

Tell me as my movie reels 

Into focus new memory 

Keeps rewinding your iris so clearly 

A vision I see perfectly 

Gleaming into my intention 

Like brandy 

Drunk on your love 

I can't forget you 

I can't erase you 

Like your last letter 

Typed so perfect 

I climb every ladder 

That will take me farther 

But it just leads me closer 

How tell me 

How do you separate 

One 

To 

Two 

I am not a hopeless romantic 

I am not a writer 

I am not a martyr 

I am just here 

Trying not to remember 

The hero 

Who saved me 

So tell me 

How do you walk now 

With my arrow 

Coursing through your perfect heart 

As a reminder 

That I'm here waiting 

Trying to save myself
