lyrics: ninfa lillampi

i can already see you in my past

I see you at the back of the room and

You hold all those near you

Between your glass and ice, 

Like spirits in your sighs, 

Exhaling lies.

Then, I meet your eyes.

My veins pulse compromise.

I know it will not last. 

I can already see you in my past. 

I don’t know how I will get there.

But, I know I will get there.

From the edges of your gaze, 

I will break through the throng

And wrangle your charm

And bathe in your breath

Just once 

And soar.

And now it is over-

Our thoughts in disorder. 

Lust is just a friend

Who opts to speaks in rhyme, 

Most of the time.

But, love is no better.

I leave-

Snag my sweater

On the latch of your door,

Closed 

For

Ever

more.
