holding fiery autumn leaves to my breast
it is then, one last farewell becomes, darkest
crushed beneath burial mounds
of twilight hours
drinking in life’s ruin
freefalling
into what will come
the downhill surge of time
down,
down,
down,
into hunger’s democracy
where life moves so slowly..
painting the old child
with the new one
the one i don’t know
the one who keeps moving
while i write…
flashing signs blind my eyes
noise hurts my ears
intuition is all that rears me
bending roads
and what lies beneath
thoughts become monsters
truth is feeling moving forward
led by example
experience
curveballs
complicated rivers
which ache to drown me
arms never answer
calls of the gulls
over an ocean i can’t seem to find
yet its dark, and deeper then i remember
ode to metamorphosis
standing alone with a mockingbird
and madness
dreams going past
laughing at the real me
into the then of where I am
today is yesterdays leftover shadow
of us
of
of
darkness
slithering
down
my soul
I'm lost
lost and
falling to my knees
a tear
falls from
the soul
of who
we
were

This, wow, its beautiful.  But what if those falling tears were caught in a jar by an angel and saved to show you the love that will forever cling to you and you can look at those tears of pain and loose new ones to bliss and happiness.  Just a thought.

After a 50 year old relationship, these last few words of yours cut to the core of my being.

a tear
falls from
the soul
of who
we
were

At 12 years old it was love at first sight for me, and although we are still legally together, for all intents and purposes it's over.

It's the tragedy of my life.

To thy own self be true
