Another pulled from the depths. Written in September of 2007 - I promise to post something fresh soon!
Sitting here motionless
thoughts in thoughts, and mouths left speechless.
The finality of goodbye is endless,
I close these eyes and a sigh escapes my lips.
Screams fall deaf to my ears
my face is cold, and streaked with tears.
The softness of a man, so passionate, so sincere -
yet I am ignorant to his touch, I am imprisoned with fear.
Pieces of this heart make trails in the past;
I am absent of the present, trapped and unmasked.
These remnants of my heart - the last of the last
lay scattered like the crumbs that Hansel surpassed.
I am frozen, afraid to open these eyes.
The fear of the present, the echos of lies -
they captivate emotion, and leave my blind.
I am unable to see the rain giving way to sunrise.
Each of my days bleeds into the next.
Breathe in, breathe out, love left a mess.
A hollowed vision, a hollowed chest -
love has this soul, and time took the rest.
Leave me to sit, in my self-made shrine?
Leave me to wait, rotting in time?
Give me your breath, feed me your line
follow the trail that those before you left behind.
