I break my own heart
Dreaming of the things
Unrealistically

A warm cwtch
A safe place
A smiling face.
While walking down the road
A voice not there is heard

I turn and stare in silence
Lost in the moment of uncertainty

The silence is eternal
Has left me with nothing now to say

I turn into indifferance
and shuffle on my way

Half expecting a goodbye
There is nothing but my sigh

Snowblind
Swallowed down into these sickening depths,
like a ship too bold for the seas it sailed
before falling, living out hundreds of deaths.

Harrowing, is having a heart that has failed
in so many rights, but still has to beat on
and be beat on like the rocks that waves bewail.

Naive and emboldened you tied your own millstone
and now I can feel it all, your panged breaths.
Shallow and sharp, weak, and like you, all alone.

And there's nothing left of you, nothing to protect
so for what it's worth: You've nothing left to reflect.
maybe connections are missed the link dismissed.    

metaphors faint as my flimsy whispers  

symbols   do you deny me peace?   perhaps you utter the words constantly?  

look closely

you run
i chase
you run more
i chase more
you slow
i catch
you tease
i like
those eyes
that smile
just wow
i confess
you ignore
i confess more
you joke
i hurt
you pretend it wasn't you
i hurt more
i pretend it wasn't you

A

even!!!
a
dream

does my soul
suit
the
demographic
of
your being

are we
two of a kind
do we
share the same heart

are we
closer in person
even!!!
poles apart

In our quest to find a soulmate
Do we tread
a
crooked line
How are we as individuals
positioned
in
the
Cartography
of being.
