The Silent Archive

The clocks are spinning off their hooks

And I’m the one with both the spokes

I find it scary no surprise

That I have looked deep in your eyes

To look at you and to see me

Is something I have longed to be

My soul has always been alone

But now it’s you that feels like home

How do you look at me that way

It feels like I have been a stray

You’ve pulled me from the depth of life

And showed me why I ought to try

I wake up in a fit of joy

Just to see you pry and toy

You flash me with that sacred look

And just like that you have me hooked
