Oh Dove  (2021)

by  Men I Trust

You're not done. You just broke a bone. Oh, dove. You're not the one that's gone. To be ours, like the trees on our shores. All tweezed. Cliffs eat away at our knees. On my knees. The one to tell your story. Don't say you're sorry, rest and heal. You used to be my spear, without fear, you had the will. I want to give you time, give you mine, until you heal. You used to speed your way, through the fields, but now you're still. Soon we'll roam. There'll be shade once more. We'll stray. Oblivious of boats sailing home. Sailing home.
