Nothing, Loved by You

i’m visiting a memory
i still see your face that night
in the moonlight in Iuka
darkness pierced by inner light
see your cheekbones through the fragrant smoke
that virgin lungs exhaled and choked

that quiet night together
with our friend will never end

that night is on my mind again

i’ve gone with you from where you came
i know you as we were the same
your beauty bent the bounderies
of the thing i thought was love

just one night with you
made me see my dreams come true
if i try and if i fail
and nothing comes of me at all

if i’m nothing
i’ll be nothing loved by you
