More than a week spent together
_____
I don't know what we look like
_____
The hours we spent in bed
_____
Got the better of our boredom
_____
And make life more beautiful
_____
You weave fabrics of joy
_____
With your laughs, with your voice
_____
You set fire to my battles
_____
My fear, my dizziness, or my faith
_____
I don't know where we're going
_____
I keep telling myself I mustn't
_____
Try to understand where
_____
The stories that matter lead
_____
Your nail polish is pretty
_____
Your bright eyes and your beard too
_____
I'm silent, fascinated
_____
By your movements driven by that gentle virility
_____
Your airs of an Indian monarch
_____
Should've already made me fear
_____
This dizzying great journey
_____
Thrown into the firmament
_____
I'm scared it'll hurt when I fall
_____
I don't know where we're going
_____
I keep telling myself I mustn't
_____
Try to understand where
_____
The stories that matter lead
_____
Is it a bodily passion
_____
Or love on a swallow's back?
The distance that separates us
_____
Means we have to postpone
_____
The verdict against our hopes
_____
You draw walls, ceilings
_____
I get people drunk with songs
_____
We're walking on a silver wire
_____
I don't know where we're going
_____
I keep telling myself I mustn't
_____
Try to understand where
_____
The stories that matter lead
