Half​-​Written Letter

from All The Weeping Cameras by The Jack McCoys

/

lyrics

You are full of windows
Fogging up with my breath
Sitting there in your make-up
With your sweetness fizzing
Giving off a little steam

I’m a photographer who
Climbed in through the aperture
And waited five years to really see you
Through every stiff and phony smile

This half-written letter
That started off with your name
And ended in a sudden fit of silence
Needs a word to name the thing

That makes our tongues itch
And our hearts sweat
Every minute of these long phone calls
That inch like ice floes
Over miles of open sea

I wrench the word free
I say it to you
