DEAR DEAREST: Do you remember? You had dreams once, When time lived forever And phosphorescent burning trees Carried you Through landscapes floating beyond The places you called Home You jumped, entwined And broiling While suns died In the livid sky- Followed the wavering form That called to heart strings And shifted the inner tides Dearest, do you remember? The beating bright Left burning, dim, In the dark spaces you forgot Waiting in the back Of your mind The music That strains wild Across eons and Spaces and pages of notebooks you used to keep When thoughts were thought Worth the saving It brightened the hazy edge Of every waking desire And oh, The Colors- Jewel tone wings tipped birds cast in Gold and crystal- Green veins Opened, oozed sweet and Waxy and clean- Blues dripped from the sky into Bleeding fires, molten lights- Broke you down and Filled you up With flames They had texture, The colors you have no name for Nothing is so brilliant anymore Do not forget, Dearest; The blinding light, The final song; The fire in your blood That roars against the quiet Moments of the day Your light is fading now Empty is filling you up. So cling- To tangled passions And wicked dreams, The heaving cacophony Exploding immortal At the edges of bliss- Cling, cling, cling- Before reality is all you have to hold Against the dimming candle that Lights your world
