Carrion Doves

Oily and white
The hard but shining skin
Is dancing with the moon and waves
Reflecting airy lights

The water is warm
And though we cannot swim
Let's meet out past
The breaking waves
To finish what's begun

And creeping through your veins
The prisoners in your brain
Are breaking out to free you
From your ancient ugly ways

And carrion doves
Cross vultures overhead
Heart mingling as
The evening ekes
To scavenge empty love

And what can make us want
Can make us come undone
When true love is so
Unclear and vague
The symptom of a lie

There's victims to be made
Decisions to be weighed
You're guilty now
But in your heart
There soon could be a change
