Superimpose

Want to lift you up again
To show you what it really meant
To see the light around you bend
At the center of a vacant eye
Lit against a darkened sky
You've taken up a life inside

Caught a glimpse of something perfect
And I can't escape the dream
I'll fill in the rest as I please
Maybe someday you'll see something
Refracted back from me
And this won't have been just a dream

Please forgive my tendency to superimpose
Onto you the things I haven't seen but surely need
Maybe if I let out all the love I hold here in my hands
I'll someday find it shining back at me

Hold me in your light
One last loving time
Something to remember this by
Hold it in my head
Paint around the edges
Can't help but recontextualize

Caught a glimpse of something perfect
And I can't escape the dream
I'll fill in the rest as I please
Maybe someday you'll see something
Refracted back from me
And this won't have been just a dream

Please forgive my tendency to superimpose
Onto you the things I haven't seen but surely need
Maybe if I let out all the love I hold here in my hands
I'll someday find it shining back at me

I can hold this
For a lifetime
Again and again
Lifted image
Love in stillness
Again and again
