He read to us

In the evenings

By the window

Thunder

My mother

Where does she go.

A small wooden house

Like a castle

By the water

We ran the halls

Through the echoes

Of each other.

I said farewell

But I never leave

I said farewell

But I never leave.

I knew her

Through the veils

Like a myth

On her lookout

I saw her cry

Like a secret.

An ember

In his pocket

He didn't know it

It was winter

When the house

Burned to the ground.

I said farewell

But I never leave

I said farewell

But I never leave.
