minutes never lost

i live and die in a moment
i live and die for the moments
i feel faint
faint in your arms, but never
faint of heart.

trembling, searching for your
face--
swimming and flying and breathing
all in the moments that i cannot find
the ground.

where was the ground? far from my mind
far from us indeed--
i seek sound i search for sight
i find your face and the world is at peace
everything is just alright, tonight some nights.

mistake mistook the world by storm(y weather)
your face retook the world from them
we strike the gong we play their games
we were never in it for just the fame.
i hold your hand and hear the wind
i touch your face and find the paperthin
heart i've been looking for,
buried deep in a cardboard box--protected from the rain.

"how do i love thee? let me count the ways..."
