tied to stones

These hearts tied to stones

The stars dance on moonlit waves
Your hair floats on the breeze

Fogged memory and forgotten lines
Tied tongue fumbling rhymes

Together never alone

Do you know how long this will take?
How do we get to the end?

You will not float.
You’re tied to stones

These deep cuts
Memories, scars

Tear stained sheets
An empty bottle

Tattooed heart
Broken words

These hearts tied to stones
