Roots of Earth Are Consuming My Home

"We have each other"
Vulgar fictions of a callow iris
Purpose is lost
Heat rises and the foundation looms
Humidity will swallow
The domicile and the ties that bind

And roots of Earth will consume my home

Under the lonely moon
And the stars that will never have any memory of us
The stone will crack
The windows will splinter under the weight of time
And as the bed burns
Our tongues and hands will be reclaimed by dirt

And roots of Earth will consume our home
