Loose the keys and find the box
hide the memories hide the box
hurting hearts and no shame
my cravings die and regrow
time stops and pushes and shoves
I hide and stop, I jump and go
to and fro, to and fro
the vacant eyes – closed , tired
your voice and a non existent I
hurting heart, full of pain
stolen moments, wrapped in shame
isn’t love like that?
humble always
as much as i can see
where love is, ego can not be
love wants love’s joy
and not much else,
a smile on your child’s face
thats all that love desires
love, devoid of greed
all encompassing love
where nothing matters
where everything is
in life
love is all there is..
is that my word
warm throbbing kicking
a living ruin resurrected
a pulse running
holding a kite, flying in the storm
diving into my own secret cove
in love with myself
yes I am Alive
when the sun rises with your smile, our days begin
else the night comes back again
to torment us
when you are close by, life happens
else we live within our miseries
pretending to smile, we go on without love
we can’t afford the tears anymore, we can’t stop to die
if you were a sand storm
you would be transparent gold and cobalt blue
i would be your stark empty canvas
upon me, time would paint you
what do you want, i ask
“your whole” you whisper
its not in me anymore
how do I offer myself to you
I don’t belong anymore
what is it you want, i ask again
“smile! laugh! live!” you utter
its not in me, I have no me anymore
I can’t awaken and live anymore
I died ages back
We stop and turn
we don’t ask questions anymore
we don’t wish the answers to bleed
its so weird
love is no more here
it hurts so much
yet we still live on
the world still is
it all goes on
