Unravel

It was never meant to be like this.

It was never

meant to be more

than half of four

,

It was never

meant to leave

the echelons of hives

Buzzing

in echelons

of everything

that was

comfortable

;

But it was.

Buzzing

in the echelons of hives

we were never meant to leave.

Outlier

Romain Lours.jpg

You came and asked him why he stood there.

Staring into his eyes

Cold as ice

With words melting

Into ears

That for years

Could only hear

Your voice.

 

As we stood there

,

Like Outliers

,

Without words

Because we were never heard

Because we never had

Any words

To say

Anyway

Because each time

He came with you

,

Like ice

melting

into your eyes

That for years

Could only hear

Your voice.
