in the grander scheme of things
it feels like the snowfall
kicked indoors by our weary feet
and these soles that fail to breathe
when I'm not left with another day
it will be the nights I long for
so I can soak in the glow of an empty room
beneath the loose threads
the ones we pulled to escape the cold
there’s an empire built
built on mementos and subtlety
we built this on goodbyes
with shoddy bricks and never minds
