we are memories

this world is too small for me
there's not enough space to leap so far
so deep
so beyond
all the things that anchor me humble
remind me of you
those yesterdays still make me stumble
so tight tight i shut my eyes
so wide wide i open them
still every turn
no surprise
still every turn

this world, so small
these tales, so tall
forget me not
forget
cut out my heart
and marinate it for half a day
then bite into pumped blood from yesterday
enjoy your meal

life
it's all part of the deal

to live
really live
is
a bit

tragic
