Lifted

I have been here
entire
tossed by the storms
real or implied
died and been resurected
gone mad
past recollection
loved and hated
forgiven and begged
life unfolded here,
when I bed bound
and real meant only
the scope of mind.
.
I touched then
felt
no comprimise
saw the stars explode
the new universe unfold
premonitions take hold
lived for words
was tortured by silence
and prayed for the world
to end.

I'll admit I was a coward
the cut ran deep
only in the heart.
.
drip drip, it was never
my blood
but the reaching of thought
to comprehend

When feeling
out of mind
touches
reaches
holds another inside thought
there is still hope.

I am still bound to
a resurection
still held by love
beyond arms reach
lifted
taken
taught to teach
given to be taken
one is lifted and dropped
in the giving of a smile
