In these lines are a forgotten code,
Your dreams of yesterday move me further,
Through the next part,
The next line,
And I just keep stumbling,
Across these cracked boulders,
And knobby branches,
And yet you come for me,
And me for you,
******* the new day with broken paws,
Screaming at the stars,
With gaping maws,
Our eyes,
Shut,
To the morrow,
Yet always open to yesterday's whimpers,
I bring this to you,
The Cold War enigma,
So you may decode some piece of my encrypted soul,
So a minuscule part of me,
May make it through to you,
But you'll never quite understand me,
Because through experience,
We can only ever understand ourselves,
And I love you.
But perhaps I'll have to wait one more day to see your crying eyes.
