   In the white room with black curtains
  near the station.
  Blackroof country, no gold pavements,
  tired starlings.
  Silver horses ran down moonbeams
  in your dark eyes.
  Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.
  
  I'll wait in this place where
  the sun never shines;
  Wait in this place where
  the shadows run from themselves.
  
  
  You said no strings could secure
  you at the station.
  Platform ticket, restless diesels,
  goodbye windows.
  I walked into such a sad time at the station.
  As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.
  
  
  I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
  Lie with you where
  the shadows run from themselves.
  
  
  At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
  Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
  Yellow tigers crouched in jungles
  in her dark eyes.
  She's just dressing, goodbye windows,
  tired starlings.
  
  
  I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
  Lie in the dark where
  the shadows run from themselves.
