Asymmetric take on dissonance influenced by relationships and forked paths
I look at us now, drifted across awakened shores, and I feel broken.
I taste the salt of the ocean on my lips, straining to feel your life
Within

Darkness stills through the night as if it were my heart.  No longer will
I stride.  I sit now, open handed, wondering how      far I’ve walked since the last
Time I saw you

How long I’ve kept the not of I; not in place warm(heart)
But of sky

Here beauty finds no voice,
Recognition no means of truth.
Only through the moment can I look back.
Only clay    the walls have taken shape

Where have gone now dozed pieces of Yesterday?
Where lies in my dormancy waiting to be
Awoke,
The devotion of History to it’s age?
I tell myself: too far gone are those faint touches in between sleep and dream
When I remember you are there                    Beside  me

Beating (heartheartheartbeat)

Able too, I once was, in seconds past,
To etch across this Earth of Stone and Mind.
Able to find, to become one with not only you, but
Myself.Binding
Like colours five in five spheres of life that rotate divine
