Floats into oblivion
Where I used to share my soul
My warm whisper lost
To your formidable touch
Crushed by the solid cement
Concepts dazzle
Logic and pragmatism dwindle
An underwater voice
Beckoning visions blind
Dreams losing definition
Empty coat hangers
A tear and one void wardrobe
The carpet smells stale
As I lie and watch time fail
To heal or gift me amnesia
Dust and rats under the sofa
The world behind my eyelids
Bellissimo!
In hopeful waves
Trinkets against my gate
Feather-like
Helium balloon
You glide through my barricade
Break my chains
No saw, sledge or hammer you use
I was never open
No lock or crevice
To manipulate or cheat
Somehow you hold keys to my pain
Somehow you’ve managed to let yourself in
Now I feel less alone and more lonely
This mammoth-like distance
A mile and a half
Your gentle eyes
Promise me nothing
Yet, my reflection in them
Seems happier than I’ve ever seen
The parrots of fortune have lied
Gods of fate caught in wonder
You may not see the future
But then neither do I
Morning creeps through my window
An ancient log of wood exists outside
Strange, yet exquisite
It carries me to you
The shores on your island
Have my foot-prints now
Mine and yours
Little, very little
Have I to offer
The Ulysses of life will give you more
Your Achilles' heel will cause you to tumble
But the fervor to create magic
Will keep you from falling
Hubris will bow down to your modesty
While you will never see
What I experience in a single glance
The light of your soul beaming bright
Fresh drops of rain on a sunny sky
Those crystalline black pearls gleam
A welcoming rainbow
Marking the completion
A dream is now realised
Listen to the chants of millions
Waiting to listen
Farewell
I will leave that Garden of elixir
I will moan watching the bridge burn
Now I am left alone on the shore
Without roots or a sail
To take me home
Remember this,
Even if you forget me
I shall never be forgotten
