Walls Like dark multiple loves Close me within their gaze And melt me to my knees While gasping air in short breaths In the place of tears there are little laughs Of insane prompting fluent moments Like hiccups stretching out to soft moans of agony. Reaching upwards for hands I cannot see I'm trying to dry tears that haven't seen light Or trying to force them Because they are there Ripping Stirring Stripping me of the hope That I can feel when I need to And let go of what should not be held on to. Rambling me again Me words Me tears So Don't tempt me into smiles and happy moments When I just need to turn inside Sink slowly back again To the depths of darkness Not night.. Mind you.. The night is different, indeed from The Darkness. Don't forget that. So.. I need to sink slowly again And why can't I? Because There are those hands reaching for me up there I see them while I wish I was blind And yet it would further shred my fragile will If they weren't at least there Or are they really there.. Perhaps just some hopeful illusion sent to torture me In my last moments of sanity. Perhaps some hallucination of love That lingers in the air like the smell Of my favorite cologne on the man I love or loved In the sober light you always see me In this light or lack of There are so many things I'd like to reveal But shh.. Not here.. Because when the generally happy get anxious And their sunshine shifts to a comfortable place Behind the clouds.. People get anxious and wonder too much About whats really going through their minds.. And about the things they'd really like to be doing. I'm simple Simply Being antagonized by no one but myself And this I must work out.. Through these words.. Although not poetry by any means, I have them And I have an ability to share them. Am I reaching out for your hands? Or am I shrinking away? Or am I really even here anymore? *poof* I'm fading... Like the light going out when you turn off the television. But there is always the static you see If you touch the face There will always be that ghost of energy. In the worst of times, let me drift beneath the cloak of Oblivion. I favor the night as it favors me. |

absolutely amazing. . . filled with a depth of longing and sadness that I've never seen in your writing. . . remember, sometimes, you can go too far into the darkness. . . ---------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
