Come Away From Me

Take my hand, darling.
Close your fingers,
Close your eyes quickly,
Do not let your heart;

Flutter as I turn and
Pull you with a thin,
Breezy movement that lifts
Your toes above the floor;
Flutter as I enshroud you,
Dragging my fingers garishly,

And, like a blade of grass slides
Between fingers and shatters
Away from the family name,
Your fingers shatter away
In my hands, please, please,
Come away from me.
