Late Night Ramblings #7 (unsent #2)


I find solace within your soul.
I find comfort in your formulations.
These eyes are in agreement with my heart.
Alas I do not see you, you are melting
into the backdrop, a cloaked figure on
wind buffeted dunes. These eddies and
whorls are not of the stellar revolutions
I have come to know upon gazing at
the darkening stars of
your countenance. Here is someone I
Unquestionably cherish. One who I would
Not barter for any form of treasure.
I would give my soul if to spare her.
Yet I fear that she has already snatched
It in a smile. I am bound by your
Merriment, your laugh clinks like
Shackles of satin. I deny that
You have captured me but implore that
You let me go. I want so dearly to
Touch you outside and in. take me up and
Into you. I would dwell within your
Heartbeat. Words fail I am lost to
Explain, I must talk the talk of souls
A quiet dialogue. Do our essences twine?
And tangle and root to form a tree?
All I want is to be free, but this
Heart could give a damn about me.
