The things we keep meaning


All those things keep
Weaving in between
A pattern repeating us

My life spread before me
A patchwork place
Of here and there
And there you are, again
And here I am
With all those words
Fitting them together
Making some semblance
Of it all

Those things we keep
Weaving in between
A pattern repeating us
Into these shapes

In between those words and shapes
The light shifts and the shadows fall
We move on past
Our lives spread out here and there
And all the spaces in between
Where all those things we keep

Just a pattern repeating
Instead of
The things we keep meaning
