Only Blue Escapes
21st Century
only blue escapes these seamless corners;
nothing else, I don't know why
the folded sky spills from itself,
intense and past due dry
there's contradiction yet there's comfort,
unstable, yes, but true
you may love a thousand others and
I think they'll all love you
but I'll catch you when you're honest
and filter through these cracks
wasn't I howling in your sheets last night
dissolving in your tracks
this storm eyed fool looked happy
fade or blend;
I see your face,
cold misty rain, and fall in love again
