I saw in the sky a 'v' of geese
synchronised flying to some country
south of me
Wow, take me with you south
smuggle me out
Autumnal signs
my mood declines
my compass heaves, magnetic fields
and my insides, are causing me to reel and preen
are heeding to
celestial queues
to seek out spring / and unfold the span of
on/my phantom wings
I saw in the sky a 'v' of geese
synchronised flying to some country
south of me
Moving measured formation like a
string of beads
open jawed with awe i hitched a hope
to their heels
Wow, take me with you south
smuggle me out

If you're gonna go
Say you wanna leave
Think we oughta talk about just what we need
I don’t wanna stay
If we’re gonna debate
Are we gonna talk ourselves into a grave
Are we going stale
Are we turning sour
Are we gonna argue for another hour
Lets address this rut
We discuss too much
Rather use my arms and lips to fix us up
Love gets lost
beneath talk
we'll find it
if we kiss
All my words have been heard
All my heart is still yours
No no need to doubt or shout or have a fall out
Coulda woulda stuck
Woulda shoulda shut up
Understood ya better when you didn’t say so much
If you're gonna go
Say you wanna leave
Think we oughta talk about just what we need
Now my heart is open
But my voice is tired
I wish my lips were swollen instead of my eyes

littlexsforeyes@gmail.com
little xs' music tells of tragic heroes, failed lovers,
empty dance floors & the unchanging seasons, taking place on trains, boats, wrestling rings & the inevitable long walk home.
Officially our favourite Irish pop band - State.ie
the most deliciously sweet hues of bitter you could possibly taste - Irish Independent
genuinely swoonsome folk-pop melodies - Irish Times
