Exists Exquisitely My Heart

Exists Exquisitely My Heart

 

 

 

By: The Author

 

 

Exists exquisitely my heart

Livid liquid living art

Serenely simple soft and sure

Perfect power pounding pure

 

Miseries unbidden rise

Stealing love with lovely lies

Draining me of all but dreams

Pain unending ever seems

 

Brightly bone is bound about

Structured on the insides out

Softly skin enshrouds my soul

Stitching of my parts a whole

 

Where then can I meaning find?

In my eyes? My hands? My mind?

Surely more must surely lie?

Wove within the depth of I?

 

Other organs orchestrate

Myriad movements never late

Clockwork; every action spells

Symphonies composed of cells

 

Never more to simply be

Mere existing ever me

Letting languid life flow by

Never caring where or why

 

Fingers move with majesty

Eyes a sea of what I see

Sinew slips in silence strong

Ears, my essence, sing a song

 

Hope, in blood, unfettered flows

Pulsing life, that living, grows

Truth is writ in all life's pains

"Life lives yet within your veins"
