Rise up nimbly

Take back what yesterday’s restlessness stole

Come to the orchard

Take no more than what will keep

There is a breathing

But it can’t keep alive your soul

I would love to kiss you

Don’t let fear trump desire

The path of blame

But I do’t know what else to take

We have opened you

Our facade infiltrating your strongest defense

Come back my friend

Bring with you what we had

The whole catastrophe

Only real to me
