still

you still hunt me

yet I cannot hide

away

deserted from my life

you occupy my dreams

there I give my heart away

instead of resisting

I did still believe in moments that are able to stand for themselves

sloes

I pricked my fingers when I picked sloes

my toes froze when I picked sloes

and now it's the blood of those sloes that drip slowly onto my heart burning with its acid

shining with its blues

(in winter's skies

with tries

cries

and lies)

I cannot deny myself

I will sleep for hundreds of years

where is the now

I am

still your slave

my heart is fine

the longest winter in my life is over

I sleep in the past
I live in the future
just where is the now
