Loquaciously Bleeding.

So is this it then?

 

Is this my way?

 

I think I’ve split my mind in two

One for me

And one for you…

 

I’m half a floating vessel,

Struggling to keep

The water out,

And half a sinking ship

Trying to push all

My air out…

 

Half a dreamer

Teaching myself how

To fly

Half the eternal pessimist

I’m so much more me

When I cry.

 

I pray you,

Tell me the secrets I clearly can’t see?

For I promise, one day,

You will notice a difference in me

 

When I see all these words

-Caged in my chest

Beneath steel ribs

A deafening, relentless

Heart-

Spill out on the floor

And soak up through the

Soles of my feet

Staining the ground

Loquaciously bleeding

Repeating…

 

I lost me today.

 

I lost me.

 

Please don’t find me this way.

i am moved by your plight here. lets have coffee and talk or just sit and watch people passing. no strings just one poet "being there" for a friend. That is how this moved me.

you have the artist eye in your brain.


keep up the great work....
