Emptiness
The
fullness of time
The
fullness of dreams
The
heaviness of desire
The
ripeness of all there was to offer
Like
the juice of a mango
Full
of promise
The
knife slices through
The
splash...in slow motion
Little
beads of yellow moistness and
The
sweetness they contain
You
see it
You
smell it
You
hold it
You
feel it
You
know it even though
Your
tongue has not arrived...
Emptiness
Looking
back and seeing
All
that sweetness go to waste
Pot
shards broken lying in the dust
The
patterns still glittering in the moonlight
The
echoes of laughter beginning to fade
The
harshness of those breaths you took
Do
you remember the taste?
The
feel?
The
warmth?
That
last stolen kiss before the light broke through the curtains
Do
you remember?
And
it turns...
Turns
and turns and turns
As
the months passed by
The
story never ending, ever changing
Every
emotion
Every
word spoken
Every
misunderstanding
The
nonsense
The
annoyance
The
pointless quarrels
When
will it end?
What
do you want?
I
want what I want
GIVE
IT TO ME!
Must
I take it?
No!
Its broken! You broke it!
I
can't see you!
Emptiness
Darkness
The
fullness of time
The
laughter resurrected
The
light touches,
The
taste of your skin
Those
kisses
No
longer chaste
No
longer lazy
What...
Do...
You...
Want...
The
space reducing
Rotations
in the sun
The
memories flooding back
The
loss erased
Its
alright again
And
then...
Pot
shards broken on the floor
The
water spilt over
It
was the same hand
Again
Always
and ever the same hand
The
same foolishness
The
same accident
Why
can't you be mine?
Alone.
All
and only?
What...
Do...
You...
Want...
Emptiness
The
fullness of time
All
the things that could have been
But
now you're saying stupid things
I
can't hear you.
And
then...
It
woke again
The
honesty
The
openness
The
warmth
The
gentleness
And
its okay to sing those songs
To
dream those dreams
To
look those looks
To
walk those walks
But
see
Its
been too long
So
I'm scared
And
you don't even know...
Emptiness
The
fullness of time
Nothing
broken this time
But
now you're doing stupid things
I
can't see you.
