A tension in the sussura,
Murmurs, Conversations in the quiet
Too low to be heard too loud to be ignored
Proud but not confident
Sing to me of inhibition
Of choices not taken
Chances not chanced and hopes not hoped
Breathe me in your minutes
Borne of the differences,
Joy in the turning
Song threads
Piercing, hollow, hallowed heart
Sing to me of beginnings
Of songs ending
Of the quiet
Sing and in silence
Lost voice
Lost dream in the turning
Light pulsing in my eyes
Timed to the beating of my heart
Heat shimmers and radiates
Filling
Full to bursting
Sky arching inward
Clouds gather
Slow giants racing forward to a future
Imagined but not realized
Your heart beating against your skin
It strains as mine
Striving to match beat for beat
Racing, racing to maintain
Falling behind
Settling for a subtle counterpoint
soundings in a desolate dawn
breakwater crashing ashore
wiping clean the face of the ever changing sands
storms on the horizon
shaking the pillars of the heavens
tossing the sea
while beneath
the calm
I am thirst spent in moments spellbound
Hunger grows without regard
Desirous of your touch
But more your words
Come softly away
Embrace in person
Forever
Know words spilled out
For silver truth
Match action
Clasp hands
Know me for truth
You are mine forever
As I am yours
Let us join
and become heirs
to our own Joy
Let what was once buried
Break newly sprung
Come my dear goddess
Let us rejoice
Clasp hands and become whole
All the good fades away
As not silence grows
Words left unspoken
Weight by waiting
Changing the curvature of the world
A tongue
(the longer held)
Weeps for want of striking waves
Loss compounds loss as she slips away
Last chances kissed away
Soft filaments stitched gossamer
Hopes delight fades gray
Heart silent
In waking
Soft notes abrasion, deft hand
Made sleep made deep
Slow quiet
Listless in the sleeves
Watched by clockface
Separated
Drunken wide by scholarship
Drift away
Memory drinks from eyes bound
The audio version of Waveform collapse
I provide certainty
Because I am certain
I provide commands
Because through order
You are safe
I provide discipline
Because through punishment
Are sins expiated
These are the things that people see
But, while important, these things are merely surface
They are the barest glimpse of what we are
You are mine
I am yours
Always by your side
A whisper in your ear
A kiss on your lips
A conversation
A song
Every word a truth
I wake to thoughts of you
I sleep to thoughts of you
Every step is a step forward
To you
