Sadness your face tears from I can’t help but sit and wish on cliches and the spaces in between your laboured breathing. Why you fake faking I cannot understand and certainly cannot question.
You walk your so-called distances while I wait and see if you come back with mud on your shoes. It’s not doubtful but you act as if I can’t see at all. Would you had told me how you so desperately stained yourself without an iota of thought.
Sometimes I just can’t see the right way. I’m still back here following a trail of unconnected patterns, mingled with shapes and an unjust, hopeful hallucination, while you watch. Lift a finger, light a candle, what more can you do? I need your comfort, but, as both our thoughts need hesitantly putting into words, I’m not yours to cradle.
