Wandering the stalest path of my inner mind... Cold wind rasps on stormy tides- and I feel you, fingertip soft against my skull... Illusion? Mayhap the mayhem has been installed? (I slept too long) Beneath sooted lashes, frozen sticky from you- I beckon this breach of insanity In purloined view of myself thru your eyes... This virginal shell- Veined in short crosses, Bonds the link of suffrage... When broken- by sentences so short I could fall from the edge If you care to invite me outside... Momentum lies heavy as I blind-grasp for grace- heavy on time? I've run out of space... space to search freely on my sentiments of you- the will to creep silent into raw interlude... But I do. I run. run from you, from outside- On soft wings of thought, and return to the sanctum of my mind, My eyes. As I sigh... and flounder for inside. Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

you sing the paradox: :I could fall from the edge If you care to invite me outside..." to "and return to the sanctum of my mind, My eyes. As I sigh... and flounder for inside." smiling in the knowing and happy happy you are here. |

Miss you old friend. Wish I had been here more often. Excellent write. And when you remember me...remember my deeds and not my words. |
