Spider Silk

A summer's eve
Lying in the cool grass
Of days gone by
And I could get lost
In your blue skies of spider silk

I wake in the half-sweet exhaust
Of some smoker's trail
The last vestiges of one
Who was so tangibly here

Sitting with you
Under an eternally starry sky
These memories bathed
In perpetual light

I'm seeing your eyes in everyone else,
And these long-lost memories begin
It's not them I want; it's you that I crave
And your waves come crashing again

Your imprints are everywhere
In everything I see
Dreaming of a time
When again we would be

Staring glassy-eyed
Into the familiar abyss
And the moments that never happened
Are the ones that I miss
