I hate you
I could never say
I need you
So please listen
**** you 
I never said
I loved you 

-Nakai

It goes both ways, Mutual.

The quiet flute
melody 
ribboning through the
murk that surrounds
my heart
sings it's way in
all the way in
to the center
where it belongs
where it weaves it's way
like a water snake 
amongst the tangled reeds
of my worries
and barriers
gently pulling them
from their roots
and tying them into
beautiful bundles
each with an ethereal
flutesong bow
burden-bundles 
song-swept away
unravelled
one by one
lifted by the 
floating echo

a life song
rests
in my core.
