hollowed be thy name

The river dried between us long ago
A perfect posture played for plastic praise
Whatever there was left is now all gone
Godspeed, and hollowed be thy name

Fly high, set sail, whatever you decide
The years went by so quickly: what a shame
I’m not the one for pitiful goodbyes
God bless, and hollowed be thy name

Your tender kiss let all the poison in
The bite marks that you left will heal the same
No longer do I carry you within
Farewell, and hollowed be thy name.
