four days ago

it’s already a little bit late
linger longer
on the bitter part
interest is waning
so hold steady, still
take it
higher, still
streaming in slowly now
listen a little closer now
go ‘head
deny the truth of it
but before long
the heat rises, fiery and bold
holds fast
against the cold, fierce
longing gets her grip in
before you have a chance to
avoid the crash &
let it
float on down
