Fooled by words, I float deficient of dare, a let it linger care, a ship of fantasies filling my head until it rains silence. I sit awake, nerves pained by too much other and not enough me to feel real...an alternate, disguising the eyes to escape validity. I cannot mask for you or you or anyone, the truth I face each day defined by the cold that enters my veins, my method of coping just useless words. There is beauty somewhere hibernating within, wishing to advertise its seeking, wishing to wear the black of sensuality needing nourishment of love to feed the nights in borrowed moments of missing time. My lips are sealed, with no escaping this path I take, dried tears wanting to flow, life's deceptions winding down, lack of courage uniquely me. Sirens shrill their call, my addiction keeping me here waiting...for that smile to appear to be touched by you, to be understood by more than words, by eyes that cannot turn away from the yesterdays that were. This is one of those some days where you could peel my outer layers, see within and know the answers if only that was your quest. For I am "Sleepless in Seattle" reaping more than my share of sorrow, my head echoing my state of mind as I turn the page once more to set out on the morrow's share. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |
