Unable to grasp the gravity
The pressure on this darkest ridge
A rope I walk
My Golden Gate Bridge
Digital emotion
Reality misconstrued
Imbued by love
I'd jump for you
 Apr 2014 Sarah Mulqueen

on the crowded quai of inception
   gilded minutes ornately revolve
time is measured in tranches of soul
   transporting moments of his essence

never versed in the outside world
   an innocent daughter of imagination
boarding a train of transfixed reverie
   her departure held fast in sistine release

such a private exhibition on public display
   their affection left open to interpretation
a tearfully expressive and inspired farewell
   within a shrine devoted to the art of the muse
You stab me in the back with a knife,
and I apologize for bleeding on it.
I had thought over tea
About my little city

Western civilization
The decay of our nation

Moral compromise
Our leaders speak lies

I just want the truth
A return to what's right

Doesn't look like we'll get that
Not without a fight
I lie in my bed
Staring and thinking

Tick tock of the clock
Days thoughts still lingering

I want to slow
My swirling mind

I think if I don't
I'll leave something behind

How can I turn off
These perpetual thoughts

I need a remote
To just hit pause
When I think of you.
I imagine us forgiving each other.
For the past arguments, the fights.

It fathoms me with desire.
To speak one word..
Just one sweet word,
For you to see that I forgive you..

My heart breaks when I don't hear,
See or feel you near..

When I meander about,
Lost and afraid.
I think of you.

My friend,
You are far away..
I wish you were near.
Please live..
Your life fully..

Farewell...
This is for a lost.. Friend..
