Written by J H Martin @ A Coat for a Monkey
Time to go
Time to dig
Past the rubble
Of dead statues
Past the end
Of all empire
What is the root
What is the cause
How ancient is this
How hollow am I
The sky of the skin
The film of the mind
The layers of dirt
I drive my hands through
Deeper deeper
Deeper still
I need to touch
I need to hold
I need to feel
The emptiness of memory
The silence of the mountain view
Golden
Luminous
Gone beyond
The walks with you in Paris
The nights with you in cheap rooms
The day I took your body to the fire
During the cool season
That morning
That change
It is not correct but it is right
This depth
This void
This journey far beneath
