Trails

i'll tear myself to pieces
laid bare on the forest floor
been running for hours now
weighed down by my rusted legs

will you go down?
where i cannot follow
you tonight

and i'll hold my breath and run as fast as i can
we'll spin like sycamore seeds across the width of heaven

past their moss-covered bodies standing alone by the river
with a weight round my ankles and your long-suffering smile
set seasonal bests at nothing in particular
so why won't you follow
me down?

it's always so different in the light of the day
there's a whole new world outside our torch-beams
will the stars also burn down?

to the ruins of monuments to nothing that lasted forever
with my foliate face fixed in an insufferable smile
so give me a silver lining and i'll show you a cloud
and wonder why it's raining
follow me down
