Instinct
(Grey)
I had an instinct to run.
I had an instinct to fly.
We had it all figured out, you and I.
Traced endless roads in your skin,
we walked the water we owned.
I had an instinct to run,
but I was flesh and bone… for once.
Down by the water, she fell.
We promised blood to the bone.
Dive headfirst into the well,
where I was welcomed home,
with open arms.
I had an instinct to run.
I had an instinct to fly.
We had it all figured out, you and I.
We ran out in colour…
We ran down like water.
