Nahko And Medicine For The People
Compass
Your mouth is the mouth of a river
I sleep on the banks to kiss you.

Your whisper in the wind,
your hips sway with the waves.
Even when you surround me I miss you

I'd sail in your waters to your pyramid of a heart,
past lost cities and lies of the past
to where love is bound in leather and encased in glass
where your breath is the wind in my sails; my north star

You'll be my knowledge,
my courage,
my compass,
my best rhyme.

I will lay anchor at your altar and wait for a sign.

If you open the earth, I will split the sky
and in the rain we can roll in the dirt,
we can wrestle with thе best of you and I'll dance tango with the worst.

I will lovе you for the rest of your life
even when you are broken,
cause even a broken clock still tells the right time twice...
and we
have always been
right on time
