Hibernaculum

In your red fur cap you hide away
in your red fur cap you shield the pain

you take the covering and try to encase the innocence
but it's lost within the covering
as the fear creates the separation
as the fear creates the hibernaculum

you walk the city in prejudice
to the hum of your own tune
you can't keep out what's within
you can't protect yourself

as the fear creates the hibernaculum

given over to the hibernaculum was when love became dissolved
in the breakdown of the fearless within and without
then you felt there was something in your belly growing bleeding out
birthing the pangs of the dead in you

you couldn’t cope to look out
alexithymia
in your eyes and through your touch and in your mouth
filling the doubt
filling the doubt
filling the absence
within and without

it gets hard when you can no longer hear your name
beneath the folds of this fur cap
