Long forgotten silence

I’m swirling in an orchestra
Dipping an opalescence
Seeing myself in the mirror
Reflecting one other
Bouncing images from one panel to another
It’s a kaleidoscope of grievance

I’m missing out a space
Your innocence is killing me
Like a tamed wildflower that is full of ire
But full of vile and poison
Your touch burnt my skin
Your fingers leave traces
Of longing and pain

Mist dawns in the morning
Holding me so tight
Cupping me in the night
An imaginative passion
Gawking in silence
And darkness
Lurking lust crawling within the sheets

Point blank shooting
A meteorite for wishing
A cusp for a cusp
A wisp for a wisp
An atoning cree
And midnight plea
Nails scratching down on your flesh

Your tendons… too soft… and tiny
Burning sensation
Approaching intention
Getting near and I can feel the heat
Rising up from above
Forming a vapor
Extinguished disappointment

I was sitting here on a tree
Facing the bridge
Wondering if I could still cross
To the other side without lifting a finger
Hurting a soul
Burning a ghoul
I’ll take the next step back

I’ll take the big leap forward
I’ll bag this confidence alone
A sunlight in summon
It’s a big humour
But it’s worth the enmity
It’s worth the dare
