Insular

Won't you guard these futile things?
Bare boned, I lie awake, the storm starts to sing
Subsurface muffled and mundane
Engulfed in bodied fumes, dangle from cranes

Well she's fractured, she reads aloud
The seals breached, we're watered down
Knees bolt to the floor as I await
Insular existence, the frail state

As he crossed her lapidary mind
For years he's pined
Devoid, implied
That's now extinct
He was hastily sinking into the deep
As they console one another
Once distant, now lovers

Placate the frowning sun
As it sets beneath your thumb
Linen roof and cotton walls
As he wept and succumbed

You console as I abide
The perception of him dies
The sediment sinks
As he's basked in opaque ink

Somehow convinced through the brush
Etched, stitched, and sewn into the crux
Through the canopy of pine
She spews rain as they ardently align

As he crossed her lapidary mind
Four years he's pined
Devoid, implied
That's now extinct
He was hastily sinking into the deep
As they console one another
Once distant, now lovers
