galaxies

(oh...and you know...)
you know you’ve had this dream before:
twisted up in sheets, barely breathing—
a room that wasn’t there before—
how can you be sure that you’re dreaming?

on nighttime streets, the headlights roam...
someone’s trying to get home.

flying over fields and farms
galaxies with spiral arms
almost feels like you’ve been here before—
try to hold it, and it’s gone
swimming straight up to the dawn
that spins you round and drops you at your door...

piling up like autumn leaves
where are all these quiet seconds going?
is this body really you?
feel it on your face: cold and snowing—

the winter trees are holding still.
you haven’t found it...but you will—

flying over fields and farms
galaxies with spiral arms
almost feels like you’ve been here before—
try to hold it, and it’s gone
swimming straight up to the dawn
that spins you round and drops you at your door...


flying over fields and farms
galaxies with spiral arms
almost feels like you’ve been here before—
try to touch it, and it’s gone
spinning straight up to the dawn
that turns you round and drops you at your door...
