need
mirrored reflection
your love
keeps me afloat
what else do I need?

glistening murmur
wandering light
tear drop crystals,
a lover’s delight
the smoke of naked loathing
clouds my mind;
an echo from a faraway land
and a certain need redefined
chasing the scent and colour
of the one that glows;
encircling the core
like a blank verse, I flow
healing light
the wind blows, sweeping with it memories,
stirring all thats been buried within
the thread slowly pulls loose
and the pile of dead leaves starts to break away
I give in, standing in silence
letting go of the fragile thoughts,
releasing the shadowed dreams
letting the feeling pass
there is yet another sky, another shore,
another reason to keep a beating heart
distant from warm comfort of tears,
away from the agony of an infatuated lover
sometimes we need to be protected from what we want
for a deeper need to be fulfilled
