:: lately ::

when my hands have nothing to do
they make these shapes
they spell out your name
idly

when my mind wanders to you
i see a moon and your place
i see a bridge and your face
smiling--
lightly

and i want a photo
of the lights and the snow
and you and i dancing
and i want a picture
of the words falling from your lips
when you sang to me
so--
sweetly

kiss kiss me under
silver trees under
silver stars

why are we--
we just are

kiss kiss me into
bliss into
this strange,
such a strange peace

that's the way it's been lately
when my mind wanders to you
when my hands have nothing to do
lately
