Title: [Writing] The Ebb Said to the Flow...
Post by: Dertt on January 09, 2008, 09:55:14 PM
Predictably, this pertains to a girl I know and care for very deeply, even if she doesn't reciprocate those feelings.

We are falling, yet gliding
without wind in the sail
and the shapes beneath my eyelids
wear the colours of a peacock’s tail

You’ll have to forgive me for my inner outburst
you seem so experienced, you should go first
into the light, the cold which swallows minds whole
and projects the images onto the flesh of your soul
where your beauty is my nemesis I try to look away
but my eyes are not affected by the senses they betray

You’ll have to forgive me for leaving so soon
to mend the ripped seams of the mouth sewn to the moon
which speaks of times we should have shunned the gaze
of the stretching shadows in the sapphire haze
If your reflection in my words ceased to haunt me
I believe I could find a way to make you want me

Please take me in
It’s raining outside
give me a home,
a place to hide
from the horrors of the world
I now face alone
I’m a frightened stray animal
no shelter of my own

I’m stuck in a web that is spun between hearts
and constructed of true endings surrounded by false starts
My throat closed after the sky rushed in
because I swore I’d never promise you the stars again
You’re not there
and you won’t arrive
until you’re unsure
that I’m alive

This is the heartland of sublimation
