Where, tell me where, did our heart go?

going backward i don't want to go backward can we turn this around my darling?
this could be right if you turn my way
i'm always awkwardly fucking with the clockwork trying to hold the minutes in place
i'm always busy trying to make this moment stay
if i could find my satisfied mind i would tell you all a graceful storyuntil then climbing the mountains and valleys escaping from wasted glory
so many scars that I don't know their cause like a memory encased in quiet
so many stars singing out as a choir like a melody to break the silence
I was backward but you turned me around you said you wanted to know my face
and you stared until you were satisfied til you were sure you'd seen a trace of gray
i was awkwardly fucking with the clockwork trying to hold those minutes in place
i'm was busy trying to make that moment stay

You touched piano keys your knees
would tremble slightly
as you described all the melodies
as anarchy
your unwrapped presence
slow parts to lullabies
i'm hypnotized
the sky is shaking
all your friends are there
somewhere
you promised them
something
they don't know
how you feel
it's all so slow
you don't know
how i feel
my skin is glowing
and the what this is confounds me
you start the car
the music up
the night awaits
you reach your place on earth where
magnetic sentiment
holds you
convincingly
you're going there you don't know where it is
but it's the only place to go
and you are going
in a burning way
so here's to love
and the one you'll let it make you
for tonight
i thank you
i am you
i love you.

Aurora
A wish gone wrong
Now turned into a tattoo
I like the way you draw (I like to draw
A portrait of the moon (these portraits of you
My wistful score My metaphors
My clumsy dance My mournful roar
Is all I can give, To the small light that is
Our shared star
The less I know the better it sounds
the blessings being chanted Making their rounds
The guessing game is wearing me down
A yes invoked could save me now
The blessings being chanted, rising on the air
Seeds being planted here and there
They go go go to home home home
I follow
The less I know, the more I care
The more your aurora is everywhere
The best I can hope is to try not to stare
At the bending of the light we tried to share
My fingers couldn’t grasp, my rhythm couldn’t keep
The ever changing silence, wide and deep
A roar of paranoia, a glorious retreat
My only option
The less I know, the bigger question asked
Which words to choose? Emotional math.
Which way gets me through the winding path
That leads from you, which future to enact?
The westward glow, tomorrow on the run
I cast my shadow in the shape of a one
Upon your aurora, your story I adore
The longest shade from the lowest sun.
The less I know the more beautiful it sounds
The holy drifting chorus making a round
It’s so fortunate, intne and into it
This long now
The less I know / my best guess gone
I confess I can see what I once saw wrong
A torn aurora born upon the shore of (born from the storm of)
my longing
To know less now, less somehow
To breathe the same air that I used to, wow
I can’t remember the words to the vow
That held me there in the longest now
The longest now…. Aurora I saw you
We long for the now, belong in the now,
This song is the now, no wrong in the now
That held me there in the longest now - auroooooora auroooooora I saw as you
