in time.

in time.

I can bargain

With my heart

To let you go

And she may listen

Though dismayed

I imagine she will

Lightly, give you away

But every so often

As I find myself not

Where I am

You will

Emerge from my

Childhood lake

As radiant as the

Sleekest summer sun

And stand upon

The dock

To once more

Not love

  My name.
