One Layer from Our Last Life

Shards of the inferno leaking from my eyes 

Save me from the end times 

I’ve been brave, I know

But Father Time and Mother Earth never divorced us the space to live 

If not here on the ground or there in the sky… what place can we carve for ourselves?

Til death do us

Part the seas 

Souls of broken glass

But with you, home at last 

Maybe we’ll never be perfect for each other in this life 

Maybe we’ll stay hands on the pendulum of time 

But I miss you still 

You hurt me, I savour the marks

The last place you held me

The hand prints on my skin 

I can smell the perfume still 

If not this life, maybe the next

If not the next, hold me when the world ends
