Will you, will you

Come to me?

Down the lonely highway

Dark snake through venom dust

Meet me by the river’s edge when the clock strikes three?

The mighty current will set us free

~

Will you, will you

Come to me?

Leave your treasure and trinkets behind

Forlorn smile on a sad moon’s face

Meet me by the river’s edge when the clock strikes three?

The ocean waits but it cannot see

~

Will you, will you

Come to me?

Across the open spaces of lies left burning

Consume the light when the turnstile clicks

Meet me by the river’s edge when the clock strikes three?

The water is cold; a chattering plea

~

Will you, will you

Come to me?

Frowning landscapes of lost days gone by

Glass eye memories for us to keep

Meet me by the river’s edge when the clock strikes three?

It will just be you and me.
