Decorate

Arranging shapes
You're not home
You don't need to know my name
Considering what you took from me

On and on we wait
Counting on some light to catch us
Guided and homebound
Rooms to decorate
With hope that you might stay
To witness life slip away

With every penny in my pocket
I'd fix the ground beneath your feet
As the ceiling falls to ashes
And we're buried

I told away all of your secrets
That you knew I could not keep
But you put your trust inside them
As they flew away from me

With every single hour
All the moments I can't keep
If you could erase this,
Well I'm sure I would make it

I know what you kept close
