letra de paul, pining for his wife - slow dakota

Loading...

diane, i bought a little white and royal afghan;
she sleeps with me often in the kitchen
for often i simply lack the courage
to sleep in the room where you slept

diane, i cleared away the ivy from the garden;
i made room to finally grow the lilac
that whitman used to scatter in his bedroom
at night when he was writing his poems

early in the morning i go out with boots and ruffled hair –
something you would always do before –
down to gather water from the creek behind the neighbors’ house
but the bucket’s far too hard to lift

oh! for all the time that i spent sleeping while the sun came up –
you were making coffee from the rain…
wading in the water while the walleye come and gather round
nibbling at my feet, nibbling at my feet!

- slow dakota
