Where do I begin. It's been so long since I've been so close to the end that I could smell the earth around me. I think I've been playing both sides of the field so long that I can't differentiate between a graveyard shift, and a cold dead sunrise. But I wouldn't know the difference between differentiating and diffusing dreaming Dead dawn rises opening up this world Dead dusk down on a twitch throe, circling the fence around my collapsing line of vision Sorrow and ***, the two things I like best that I want less of the more that I get.
If I could go back...I would have kissed you on the river. I would have shown you with tenderness, what it is like for your life here on this world to be wanted. I would have given you what love feels like beyond the shade of fear of loss, the ultimate gift I would keep on giving. And then I would've stricken you with my oar until your beautiful body no longer broke surface intentionally. It would have been the gentleman's way of settling things. Instead I chose the dreamer's.
I've been in camouflage, hiding well from you. hoping to escape within the community of a seemingly functional system. Found it hard to keep my cool when utterance of a simple name or phrase could throw me into breathing lasps, When the sight of a single stone upon the ground could be a city in the sky, my last gasps are playing and rewinding and then playing, and rewinding, and then playing, and rewinding and then playing, and rewinding and I'm laying down the sheets upon the floor, because the bed reminds me too much of the perfect story memory I'm alone. In a building. In a desert. In a deadlocked staring contest between me and my reflection in the moonlit water memories that make up all I am were was are is will ever ******* be If you can't escape in a ******* dream then where the **** else am I gonna go?
I've wasted my life, observing, becoming less a part of all the things I spend time looking at. Removing myself from the final edit. Hoping somehow, That total abstinence, From your world, And my worldly desires, Will somehow put Me in CONTROL.
Love is about control for you. I believe in you. I don't know if I believe in control. It doesn't matter if I believe in love.
Someone please just see the justification for anything I do. I am begging for a partner. I have no one to observe me.
If I seem hellbent, please...I am merely driven by demons to an end I would have no means to reach if I was...
