O My My - Ani DiFranco

Your body

Foreshortened

Below

Your shoulders

Your face

So close

It’s out

Of focus

Way down

The hallway

Comes the sound

Of your shoes

That is what i

What i think about

When i think about

You

If we let our love

Off of its leash

Do you fear, like i fear

How fierce it could be?

Your headlights

Sweeping

Across my

Ceiling

The breadth of

My smile now

The depth of

My feeling

Way down in my dark life

A shaft of your light

Shines through

And that is what i

What i think about

When i think about

You

If we let our love

Off of its leash

Do you fear, like i fear

How fierce it would be?

O my my
