You keep me sober like an amethyst, Gripped so tightly in my fist. You swab the wine from my thoughts, Blood-purple quartz. The pike of night lays a starry roe. Sleep my bedded love like a foundation stone, So soundly, you fortify me Against alarm, and you keep me, you keep my calm. Crystal bloom I put my hands to you. All I need is someone to talk sweetly to. Snow falls, feathery bone, On my arm, and you keep me, you keep me calm.
