Tick…Tick…Tick…..
How many more come
Listed
Read
Reread
Double checked
And still it’s all the same
A forward motion; Kinetic
Rushing to your side
To the back of you mind
Seeping down your spine
A chemical complex
Teasing cardiac arrest
Into your chest
I was born with a key
And for some reason it wasn’t for me
Never foreseen
In all these serene dreams
That it would ever have a place of rest
That its purpose was made for the heart within your chest
Point
Enter
Turn
Unlock
Spilling from a centre
Out amongst your stomach
Turning and twisting
With less and less resisting
The composition of your emotional turmoil
Escapes into your body
Run amuck
What the fuck is happening!
Tell me!
‘Cause I honestly feel like I’m the one who caused this.
Density of past compilation
Your wandering eyes searched my pen and paper life
Anticipated no! but a reverberated wake of solitude
Makes itself known, though it was there all along
Printed residual images
Sutured together by time and fondness
This tryst of verbal glee
Becomes so much more
Isn’t that what you said?
Didn’t you say that I was in your head?
Walking
Running
Screaming
Burning
Turning
Knotting
Jotting down all the secrets to your heart
Pent up heartrending feelings
Give them a place to meander
But don’t trust them in your soul
In your heart
Or in your head
“The simple words I say” I said
“Only Formulate desire”
How do I stop myself from stepping off the edge?
I ask myself how,
You ask me why
How do you stop yourself from leaping to your end?
You ask yourself how
I ask you why
Tables turn
Hell the table is completely flipped upside down
Throw out these chairs
We are no longer sitting by trying to make sense of things
Blindly do you run?
Controlled are you?
Limited to one thought I see
Of me
But opened now are these passages
Of loves unwritten immortality
And a limitless existence of profoundness
That reached forth so softly
That tipped, then consumed
Tore apart, then resumed
That daily activities of its resume’
Trust me these things fade from day
In a breeze
These words will one day be swept away
