the face with no eyes stares at me

with this sly smirk grinning

you know more than you say

up to my chin in mud and dirt

feeling that pulse in my chest

like the last train coming to a stop

the warm drops of water hit my cheek

falling from above

and gently rolling down to find their new home

and this hot steam rising 

making me sweat and wander

as the puddle builds beneath me,

swimming in a pool of blue

sing me to sleep again

where the dark night holds me

i never knew you, but i dreamt of you still

riding

i need to get back to the subway

where those doors close tight

and the noise swallows me 

reuniting with the ones i love

we sit at the end of a long pew

staring at the bottom of this rocky road 

in excess, the only way to be

we wrap ourselves around each other

holding tightly to what we came for

i wait for you

in these empty moments

filled with the liquid of dreams

emptied by the last call
