Sleep Tongue

the day was draped in golden twilight and everything was a memory dissolving like sugar on your tongue i want to hold every minute in my hands cupped like water slipping through the cracks how lovely is the silence of growing leaves i can feel you close and now i reach for you  through the thorns in every dream but i can't get out bathe me in the fire dance around the embers white stones in our mouths trees and forests talk to me when i'm sleeping take me when i'm lost --- Sleep Tongue - Holy Fawn
