TRANSPARENCY V.

“The End of a World”

Running and running, until the night catches me still

My bones snap at fear

Underestimating temptation

Why must my soul remain hidden from the eyes of your love, words felt so sincere

Oh please…hold me dear

Hold me until my name sounds blissful in your ear

Patched by the stitching of memories

You, ever so sweet, like morning dew, with northern winds and maple leaves

I know you like to play

Impractical characters you happen to make believe

Then what about me?

Am I distant, in regards to the giving tree

I’m practicing your literature

The letters you left at home for me

You come across the bedside, in which I made

Watered down, so you won’t ever have to breathe

Just listen to me….

Sidewalks by the edge of the world 

Engraved so we may walk still

Where we go, they’ll never believe
