Burning CDS

I burn CDs to know the truth
And each song reminds me of you
As your image fragments and splits into two
A mirror reflecting what is already gone
Twenty years old and sining your song
As you let me see your heart
And I turn the pain into art
That I can turn over again and again
Like an embroidered cushion of all the men
I’ve loved in the past
From Paddy to the one that will last
Past the bounds of death
And he says that he forgets
What we were
And only has eyes for her
And I should let him go
But I don’t think he know
What he means to me
And if the dream would let me be
I would let him see
That it’s he and I eternity
In the wilderness and the scrub
You know it that it’s true love
When unconditionality breaks the kernel of
The ego you thought was
All that there was to you
Now I know that I’m more than I could ever do
In this world of form
And the image of you makes my cheeks warm
And my heart do a jig
But you’re working on an oil rig
And every fire I think to set
Only endangers what was met
In the honesty I let slip through
When I told you that I love you
