an occupied space
a room, recently sage-bathed
is filled. a temporary tenant
the glory in despair
the glory in despair
you at first, tensed-up
like any foreigner would
perceived time askew
remembering things
better than they were
moments lost, spiral
these black mirror echos
better than they were
moments lost, spiral
these black mirror echos
we name it
the great pretending
reluctant, walking
in each others hearts
the great pretending
reluctant, walking
in each others hearts
