Tiny Dancing Doll

You found me in your dream
(the same way you did when we met)
The words past your lips were silenced on your fingertip,

And floated into space.
I carved them into stone inside every song i've made.
Death is a slow parade.
I'll fall in line someday and walk beside you.

Tiny dancing doll, don't you spin out of my hand.
Headline of the day says you found your place to land:
Spilled across the floor, now I understand:
You carried that weight so long.

Some small bouquet-
Gathered for their beautiful display.

So childlike:
Cicadas will sing from the tree to their lovers,
"come find me in the leaves."

Through the night,
A few cicadas still sing
Just for birds to devour in the morning.

Tiny dancing doll: watched you spin out of my hand.
Shattered hourglass: all that's left of you is sand.
Spilled across the floor, now i understand:
You carried that weight so long.
