You Give
by Emily Richards
The wind and all its space has scattered me
With words
Lingering alone now
I talk between the graves
I study all the names
I'm swallowing the pain
Of a ghost town
I hear divided whispers
In a wilderness of glass
Rumoring alone now
I'm longing for the mirror
I feel you moving nearer
I'm weary of the fear here
In a ghost town
Love's shadow is walking now
You give
You find me and give to me
You give
I'll swim through muddy waters
I'll send a warm rain round
I'll dive without your pen
Won't let you drown
I'll carry all your mindwood
I'll burn the steel gate down
I'll light a million candles
I'll sleep upon your ground
You're strong in a soft corner
You're tall sitting down
Shouldn't be alone now
You're the half somehow
That Plato talked about
Your dragons quiet down
Once they're found
Love's shadow is knocking now
You give
You find me and give to me
You give
You dig a well in summer
You give a cure for pain
You write a book of laughter
You give me life again
You give
You give myself back to me
You give
You give
You Give written by Emily Richards.
