Anne Sexton - The Moss Of His Skin lyrics
Artist: Anne Sexton
album: What's That
The moss of his skin.
It was only important to smile and hold still.
To lie down beside him and to rest awhile.
To be folded up together as if we were silk.
To sink from the eyes of mother and not talk.
The black roam took us like a cave or a mouth or an ingrown belly.
It was only important to smile and hold still.
To lie down beside him and to rest awhile.
To be folded up together as if we were silk.
To sink from the eyes of mother and not talk.
The black roam took us like a cave or a mouth or an ingrown belly.
