An embrace over my head

I tried looking down on you,
I got nothing but anger from it.
I tried to draw a line round you
But I couldn't hold you still.

I set my teeth on edge
Rigid and angry
And I opened my mouth
Till I was sick of complaining

Exhaustion and confusion
At your high and mighty strangeness

You hadn't changed
I caught a look in your eye
That you wouldn't forsake me.
That you would still embrace me.
