where the wild flowers grow

I scream
to you

love,

I scream waves
this house echos.

it burdens.

I fall,
I'm falling..
i made my bed

I never knew
i'd die in it.

a convulsing
sigh
i twinge
a batting eye,

strike one..
it has begun,
strike two..
I read hanged man in blue,
we skipped

strike three

for the
card of death
the tarot reads..

I scream

scream your name,
love
o, sanctuary,
catch the soundwave
philosophy.

no,
there's no use
for parachutes..
merely sheets
in the wind..

I'd rather swim
in oceans of my tears..
I'd rather choke
on the salt I've wept..
And I'll never
smile
the same again.

I
suck
it
up
hold it
in
yesterdays
and
neverlands.

immortal
spinning doorway
sucks
me back
to where you seemed

to inhale my
direction
my screams they gleam
in weathered black
shrouds of
who I came to be.

you can't keep me
bubbles of whispers
while I sleep..

You can't enslave me,
my voice I
will
keep.

That's right don't let anyone ever take that away from you

Parts of this I read as very sensual...

Could be read a couple of different ways...which of course is just great writing.
