Time unapologetically cheats us
Going fast and slow like a playful child
While claiming otherwise
When we notice the anomaly

Still
Like a kid that's too wise
For his unknowning parents
What is discarded down the stream
Into the past can never be retrieved
And tried in its infant form

So
We accept it
Accept the deception
As self evident truth
While
Deep down inside
Remain forever
Skeptical

So I always color my soul the color of you.
Yitkbel Oct 2017
Sometimes
I think I can hear you loud and clear
On the other end
Of this channeling soul.

But I am always deathly afraid
That it's just meaningless
Perpetual echoes
Circling within my own
Closed and hollow
Inescapably fragile
Heart.

Have you ever loved someone
Not for their love
But their inability to love
Or be loved.

You finally want to give someone
Your everything
Only to realize
You have nothing to give
And they don't know how to accept
Anything

And so
Two desperately loud souls
Suffer
In complete
Silence.

My heart aches when I long for you
And I think it hurts when you miss me too
Though they twinge in different
Sharpness and hues
The Language within Me and You

Sometimes I think,
You speak to me through my own thoughts.

I live in another world in my dreams
Conscious, nautical, dreams
A window to a similar dimension
A gate to another universe
And
I am always almost fully
Awake

The dreams
The events
Though cryptic
Though jumbled
Somehow fully connect to one another

And
I never drift into this world
I merely exist within it
No beginning
No end
Always just a fleeting moment
Caught off guard in motion

There is
Only the sweet drowsiness
That keeps me guessing
Whether
I am stepping into a real dream
Or
Waking up from a false reality

Either way
I exist within two worlds
I dream within two worlds
I am aware within two worlds

And

Ever since I became aware of this
I think they
-Those in my dreams-
Did too

I think they
Have become
Sentient
