.07 Of A Dove

Highlite the only words written
With memories played in reverse.
Notice how each letter moves you
To remember the pain, remember your curse.
Add to the memoire of yesterday
With the .07 sadness you use now,
It's darker and thicker than ever
Covering more than an Irish lough.
Consider the winds and seven voices
That call out to you even in silence,
They realize the sequence that is left
To cover you in your own mental         .
Here I come to cover your eyes
And make you forget that yesterday
Was something to be disowned,
Something that won't go away.
The Four corners of Earth cat-call
When you walk your streets,
They mock you and your faults
That cause you to stumble in the heat.
Call it fate, call it chance,
Call it a passing of the unforgettable,
But my presence will make gone
The things you have deemed too regrettable.

Quiet whispers in your nestled in your ear
Bring you the scarlet speech of love.
I've coated it with candied ideas of perfection
That exist nowhere but in you, my dove.
Rise up on the wings that you have found
And fly from the hunters that pursuit your peace,
They have no concern for the carrier of the message
But I will make their sacred selfishness cease.

now im alone, but not lonely like before

Beautifully written

Standing on the edge of the world
Now I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
