droplets
of hope,
languished,
stoked
numb and
narrow,
soaked in
sorrow
slippery
cheeks,
crestfallen
creeks
dire
straits,
deadly
debates
residue of
life,
poisonous
fates
once my
partner,
since,
closed gates!
Oh God!
predicament
grave,
souls
to save
what
do i do?
bugaboo..
hullabaloo..
what
do i have?
devastated
desire,
a world on
fire,
my
partner’s ire!
delirious
rave,
yes, i
did misbehave!
sitting
on the window,
a hurricane encompassed
my wrists are frozen,
i just breathe on the glass
put me on
yoke,
blow me in
smoke
better send
me to hallow
without
her, i am but shallow
victory is
in purse
i have
nobody to defeat
silence is
my curse,
i have no
song to repeat
God, give
me light
my
partner, my sight
yes, i
have low attention span
but i am
still her man
my moon
has sunk,
this
darkness is drunk
frail
is my flame,
but my
love has spunk
pining for
you, my love
i go down and above
no more a human,
i am but a
mournful dove
every
breath i crop
oh, you
have been missed
every tear
i drop
oh, you
have been kissed
if ever,
there is god,
if ever,
his glory
for all
that, and more
my love, i
am sorry!
light a
candle in my heart,
and burn
every other wish
give me
that dream we made,
that
flicker in the iris!
You know you have found love, when you cannot find your way back.
