Shimmer

Your shimmer beckons
And I answered the questions you asked of me
Scold my drunk reflection
Never mentioned the lesson I should learn from the mess I made

The world turned over, it sent me sailing towards the Sun without a sound
So into the sky I plummet, towards the clouds as if they were the ground
And when you siren song, transcending
Makes its way across the center of my eardrum
I don't have to wondеr what would happen if I let it all permеate
The parts of me that keep me breathing
In the deepest darkest alleyways of my brain
Cause you still take my breath away
And it said it on your face
Scribbled crudely in your makeup was a poem but you left, obscure the name
Your shimmer glistened, every time that I knew you were listening
And that paranormal fission, that phantom heat between the center of our palms

I still felt it burning long after you'd gone

Why do the tides remind me of the way that you'd bat your eyes?
I'll resort to silence and embrace this persistence
But your voice inside my head could probably render me dead
And how many times are you gonna make the angel on your shoulder cry?
And how do I always find the resemblance of your eyes
In the stars at night as they stare down from the skyline?
