One day I will know you,

tread with ease upon the lines of your flesh,

dot each spot of white with a kiss.

One day life will heal you,

take you up high on iridescent wings

and watch you light up the stars.

Some day words won't fail you;

you will spit out meaning like bullets

and I will gladly drown in the rain,

Some time night will fear you,

bow down on bended knee

and place a golden crown upon your raven head.

One day I shall understand you,

feel the madness that's flooding within

and know you've created this perfect storm.

One day thoughts will shatter,

brake and crumble onto the floor

but then you will have already learned how to fly.
