Splintered Wood

Start this right. When no one expects it,
Just let it collide.
I spend half the day wondering where you came from
And the other half chasing my tail.
Come down with me, roll your pants above your ankles
Dangle your feet from the pier like fisherman's bait.
Let them float on the water like the miracles you have shown me
Let your ghost find my bedroom like you had always known me.

Just that last line. I can't believe it.
