Blind friendship
Is sitting in the chair next to me
Like a consolation we all seek
From loss, blurred vision
Clouds draw veils
While I listen to his footsteps
Again
The pain seemed like forever
Every single collegian of time

Night darkened on their eyelids
Caressing infidelity
Whispers in my bed
Knowing they were a dream
That I could have become lost in
Hey, at least it’s “my” calling

The outsides looking in at me!

Now silence comes in might
Drizzling immortal life…
Selfish as it seems
I’m on my own quest…walking in
Shoes that fit
I can communicate
Insure my own damnation

Omission is like a snuffed out candle
Pouring balsamic vinegar into the wounds
Conspiracy is dead
Lost love is the only truth
That touches won’t reach anymore
It’s a new world, one that I’m not a member of
Love’s labours, write a menu of HELP!
Perhaps I’m the fool but..
It was all and always about sex
What ever happened to making love?
There’s a digital art beyond the physical

I found myself in people finder reunited
With somewhere…to where I’m going
Hopefully a lot more compassionate
And a lot less knowing

Wow.  I am most impressed by this.  That is to say that the impression that this poem has left on my is gargantuan!!  Beautifully written.
