Sing to you of dreams and lies
Told to the self
to make it all bearable
Or shift focus to the fragile truth
Spun sand
Held in stasis
Waiting for the softest puff of air
An edifice of fantasy and glass
Shattered foundation
Drifting towards the threshing
Of can’t have and dare not
Words cast out
Beyond caution
Always a step beyond sense
Daring you to
Match me step for step
Passion writ large beyond sanity
Beyond the wary shroud
Of past mistakes
Rushing towards you
With a sharp shout and
A whispered word
….
“Always.”
