Doll Spirit Vessel - What Stays

Summer baby, your face looked tan through the phone screen
Pixelated, what I couldn't see were the backs of your hands peeling
Your noon sun slips behind my mountain
I'm thinking shapeless thoughts
I'm thinking shapeless thoughts about intimacy
About endless need
About moments
Moments of peace
Sunburnt baby, besides the hands, what else am I missing?
An idea made me fervent for a time
I saw a world behind it
Now I'm too lazy to find it
Your noon sun slips behind my mountain
A day swells and is gone, thrown out to the dogs
To join a growing wake I can't see clearly
So please show me
Show me what stays
