613 - Asaf Avidan

What I say when I say that I miss you

Is that I will always love me more

What I need when I bleed just to drown you

Is that someday you’ll become a shore

It’s my wave that will crave and will pull you

And another that will push you back

We will be just a sea they can sail through

They can split us but we never crack

On occasions our sea will swallow

613 shades of sad

And occasionally we’ll be just shallow

Enough for them to see the things we had

20,000 different leagues of sorrow

They will surface but we’ll let them drown

And the moon will lift our holy bodies

And we’ll live as one

With the rate and the weight that I pound you

You will tell me that you understand

Every shell I’ll propel just to spite you

You will break it and you’ll turn to sand

We will be just a sea and a shoreline

We won’t need no words, we’ll have the tide

I will bleed and I’ll plead that I miss you

Even though you’ll never leave my side
