It becomes you, the sky, the azure colouring of your eyes blending
in rather inauspiciously, as if it were somewhat
disguised…
Your sweet deceptiveness.
Never could I admonish you, unknowingly innocent, as are you,
completely unaware of your surroundings or of the chaos
which follows your every footstep
as you search
new horizons, weaving havoc and revealing that coy smile of yours.
Come to me in dreams making your presence known entering as
a silent whisper, a voice leading to my remembrances, when
the wind is still when the stars blink and sigh
within the night.
to me, so I may gaze upon your eyes; singing your love songs as I cry my tears while listening to an untitled symphony, so I may
feel your pain and sorrows reveal to me
another memory
within the past, I have so few of them left, the moments you and I once share before your leaving….
Come to me in dreams, my immortal, and never leave as you once
have left me left alone to suffer in my
misery…
Stay with me past tomorrow’s tomorrow, and I shall reveal to you
my undying love….
We live within random moments of reality and illusions, memories
and dreams while wandering about aimlessly in between
parallels of time circumventing the present,
the past and future
simultaneously without our prior knowledge…
Nothing is for certain within the realm of uncertainty. We exist
within a confined space and time.
By definition,
we are ruled by our own desires and capabilities, anything beyond
that is left by chance, a flip of a coin. We fantasize we are
winning when we are actually
losing
and yet we continue unhindered and unbridled no matter the
consequence. We imprison ourselves when we
become weak.
We become reclusive, elusive, and introvertive. We cannot
break out of our shells and if we do, we become lost
and afraid.
And we fear the sky will fall and hit us on our heads.
