The earth takes what we can not give back the walk of the faithless splitting the soul and I wonder why time hurts the chill has changed the inside of me being alone with my own darkness of our past behind your eyes I wish I could show you the south sky at dusk shades of warmth and color all the spaces between show you our memory of life when we were happy until the indigo prism shattered now: --the ache of hand and stone & shadows that never last the deepest longing can shape you taking form beneath fragile fingers but: I never considered the distance between heart and mind, between each pulse lies the lost angel in shallow darkness sleeping awake while the dream ends rising in horizontal faith you were searching for smaller things boxes of broken edges -- light against walls, captured where you stood-- through ashes watching gray hit the floor the earth will move again & I will think of you -- of fate sometimes and what it means to renew I am here waiting for whispers where corners once bent remembering: even raindrops search for beauty they once had I keep a fragrance bottle my muse gave me when I met him in endless winter and he settled me into remembering who I am. |
