both ~ away ~
.
one is across the country,
the other ~ across an ocean
and
I am in the center waiting ~
.
neither
here or there ~
.
just
waiting ~
.
waiting for this ~ profound
loneliness
to
float
away ~

without water

my words are scattered ~ ~
they are everywhere
and
nowhere.
I feel lost
in a pool
of
profound redundancy.

searching ~
.
i have been searching for a story
with a happy ending ~
something simple
not grand,
no complications or pain.
.
a production of sorts ~
words dancing on pages,
pages waltzing through chapters,
chapters leaping between covers…
all bound by a simple
beginning,
middle
&
end.
.
can it be such a story truly exists
or
am i fooling my heart ~ wasting
my days ~ searching
for
a
book
I can… will… never write?

before…
“
any day can bring goodbye ~
so
let’s hold one another close
before
we touch the sky ~
“

before the wind blows…

i find moments ~
so many moments
dancing amongst a stage
full of shimmers
and
murky shadows…
all
waltzing upon waves of time
coming from… going to…
someplace
yet
going to where…
…
i do not know.
~ waves ~
present always…

my thoughts of you
are
very much like the sun ~
they rise and fall,
shine and fade
but
they never
drop
out
of
sight…
.
they are omnipresent…
.
forever floating through…
.
me…always.

this is ~
‘
this is my heart ~ feeling
what
my mind is ~ shouting ~
‘
eyes drowning in tears
as
my veins spill blood into the night.
‘
I cry out upon deaf ears ~
will my slumber ever sing…
dreams of beauty
or
will it be consumed…
by this shameful darkness
and
dread?

“each heart beat
fades
into chaos
leaving
confusion
and
fatigue.”

~
please…
.
please ~
silence my voice with your lips.
muffle the sound of my pulse with your embrace.
.
please ~
entwine my limbs,
devour my thoughts ~ but ~ never ~ ever
attempt
to quiet my heart
or
control my spirit.
.
please ~
never.
