The hours have turned to days
yet it seems like years since you & I
first laid claim to this.
Pain’s battered down your door
& love had turned her head;, you
forgot what you’d been fighting for.
The summer’s almost done but
kisses warm these autumn winds
& tangled in the tears is laughter
the sheer absurdity of this.
You fell upon your knees
your guts spilled out across
a foreign floor
but now the bells ring out the time
the time to bandage all our wounds
turn our head to ocean
dream upon the sky
the time is now
to honour this.
