Numb.


Feeling like a corpse.


Spent more Time in my dark bedroom


Than any Outside world & the People


Afraid?


       Not Quite.


Used to be the case


    Now it’s but habit.


I dream to see the Ocean


   A pot of dreams

   
       Endless gentle waves


            To Sleep on


Gravity


   Each step can be so heavy


         It keeps bringing me down


   I was


         A child once


But


    I never changed


It’s


    Everything Else that's changed


Still waiting


    No ship is


               Coming around


I wonder
​
   
   Do we always have to build


The ships ourselves, timber by timber,


nail by nail?


       Aren’t there easier ways


           Just to be somewhere


                  Touch it


                      Feel it


                         Before it


                              Dissolves


                                 Into ourselves


                                    Again?


   My strangers

   
          Who’re sailing nightly

   
   I often wonder


     how’ve you fared


                your journeys.


    Are you better
​
    
           or worse


           Smoother


              or Rocky


         Brimming with hope


            or in the dark


          Just like me?


            I pour my love


              Into cups of


                     Honey Liquor


     When it reaches


                 your nightstand


       I hope you drink it


                 gently


     And think of me


         When you close


                    your eyes


     In the realm beyond.


     In there you’ll meet me


     And


        we will dance


       when the wind


              Stops Blowing


                      Then


        we shall lie on


              the Hill


        And watch


              The Moon & it’s skirt


     of dazzling stars


        As we fall asleep


          in each other’s Arms.


   When we’re both


      Crumbled of Wrinkles


    Finally


       We can kick our heels


And Be with Each of Each other


          For


                Ever


                         n


                              E

   
                                   V


                                        E


                                             R.
