It's true, in addressing the public

“It’s true,” I said,
“We’re both alive,”
And I can hold you by my side
Or in my head or between my thighs
Or let you go and hope you sigh
And wistfully pass me through your mind
Or blink hard knowing that you tried
Or let me tell you that it’s fine
Because you never lose the things you find
They morph, distort and change with time
And all that’s traced back from those signs
Buffs our souls until they shine.
