Wine

Come in and sit down
the pains in my veins have all emptied out.
You sent me in a spin
the minute you stepped in.
A toast, raise your glass.
Unknowns in my bones are gone at last.
The thick and thinner times
we’ve washed away with wine,
I’m amazed that you stayed.
Wake up from that fear.
The ghosts caught in my throat have all disappeared.
I fell into a sleep.
You sand sobered me.
I’m amazed at your grace.
Honey, please — stay with me.
Here’s to how we fit
and have healed because of it.
And here’s to all your grace,
how none can take your place
And here’s to how you’ve seen
the lines from you to me.
I’m amazed that you’ve stayed
Honey, please, stay with me
I’m on my knees.
