Sited in a dark room my legs folded Candles  lit     Glowing in gold steady staring through the darkness No incense  just  the  smell  of burning wax My legs are  growing  numb   All  junctures  holding  them  a piece  bitter     This is just a flesh of my now… but we measure by time!? if so when you  read  this… Read  of  my  now Beyond  flesh unfolds blood  and  bone Beyond flesh unfolds deep waters that run in u To  discern life  enough  to  find  the  light  in  u ……….. All I write is to, for, about   u If I die I’ll have  to  seek  a  heaven  that  finds u   If I die I’ll roam  from  plane  to  plane  cursing  fate  for concealed  mystery Hearts  like  this  are  built  in  extremes  of  brick  in  furnace On sight  of  light;  hearts  like  this sail  their souls They  choose  never  to  row  letting  their  sails leadeth  them  forth  by  whispers  of  the wind   Afar  and  lost  yet  it’s not  land  they  seek …… In  silence  I don’t  see  you In  silence  I  chew  my  nails in silence I hear the wails sound clear
