A Thousand Screams

Some days my journey is too long
and desire is at its end.
Those gifts of you to me
disintegrating memories, fading particles,
dissolving into nothingness
and my outstretched hand
losing touch.

I felt raised in spirit alongside the tall of you,
nowhere to look... but up,
satisfied in just being there.
Even I can't answer for you,
dreams remaining open ended,
the darkness of early morning
reflecting a mood once broken
but titled "addiction".

I am unaffordable, separated by a heartbeat,
with only my words to keep me here,
though tiring of their definitions
and wondering if their source
is losing its warmth,
becoming a picture without words,
to be letters never sent,
filling my days with nights
and my nights with days...
the power of that last kiss.

I am travel weary though getting nowhere,
a prisoner of my thoughts
living a thousand screams
and no one to hear them.

"Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."
(Will Moss)

You knew I'd read this...you knew I'd respond. Loved it! Sometimes we all grow tired of rehashing the past. Keep pounding out your thoughts into your poetry nakdthoughts. I'll read your screams and offer a warm hug.
