Adrift
In your name I have gone this far
A witness, a keeper no more
I walk my feet into the water
Until no light touches the bottom
Only to hear the stones speak:
"We have no quarrel with you"
I drop the torch and climb the pyre
I wrap my fist around an ember
Out of which there comes a hiss:
"My strife lies not with you"
I scale the cliff and lean into the wind
Where a voice soon carries:
"Here there is nothing for you"
I lay myself on this frozen ground
My fingers running through the paling grass
I hold my breath so as not to miss
Those words I know will never come:
"Your place is here right beside me"
"Your work is done"
"Your place is here"
"Your work is done"
A witness, a keeper no more
I walk my feet into the water
Until no light touches the bottom
Only to hear the stones speak:
"We have no quarrel with you"
I drop the torch and climb the pyre
I wrap my fist around an ember
Out of which there comes a hiss:
"My strife lies not with you"
I scale the cliff and lean into the wind
Where a voice soon carries:
"Here there is nothing for you"
I lay myself on this frozen ground
My fingers running through the paling grass
I hold my breath so as not to miss
Those words I know will never come:
"Your place is here right beside me"
"Your work is done"
"Your place is here"
"Your work is done"
