In love with the noise of your shadow.

Tracing the leylines of you, back to the trauma that shaped you as a diamond and before the wheels came off. Dissecting a string of sins attached to your amnesia; never remembering or conveniently forgetting the scars you gave as gifts to the people who deserved better.
The architect of your surrender was only ever going to be unearthed in one place – the mirror.

A kerosene thought before it all imploded, shadowboxing caveats in the ruins of chords: distance, time & hunger hinged on a maybe. Unsustainable songs sustained by friends peering through the curtains of the future, waiting in the wings for clandestine kisses throbbing with life and an unknown journey marked by the stars.

It started with an eternal glance into your morning-after eyes, only a decade between us. Frozen in the moment everytime our sentences locked, everytime you looked back, everytime I mapped the future, everytime.
Then came the days out and the nights in, the surplus seperations and the elegant eloping; from lust to trust we were the city and we were the country, sleeping & breathing in Arcadia.
