Array ( [sid] => 140478 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => thinking of you [time] => 2008-02-19 04:19:26 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I can not be thinking of you . . . & I am . . .
alone as I am,
with temptious moment
& zen of device.
a surrender to longing.
mere glimpses suffice.
alone with my wanting . . . I attempt
to deny.
the edge of my wanting
still tries to befriend me,
& conjures
another sad absence
of ending.
amid the respite of my mind
. . . 'mid respite,
mechanisms prepare
for a fending away.
a still quiet . . .
&
this vigilant sigh . . .
desires last breath spent . . .
now gone by.
companion so constant,
pathway of my will,
restraint of pretense.
nothing seems shattered?
yet still
our frailties exposed
so broken within.
once frivolous
now vanishing,
as each time we pretend
& we barely accept
guilts' strange gift,
let it in . . .
as some marking
of days lost, of time
better spent.
timeless creatures, we drift
restrained, not exempt.
we evolve
to withdrawal
which speaks clearly
to me to defend.
once so gentle,
this emptiness
unravels, it offends
& nothing seems fitting
to fill, so I plead
with myself
to relinquish
this lost love . . . Gods' speed.
still solitude unending
it echos my name
at the edge of my memory
you & I dance
untamed . . .
how you captured my heart.
never mine to reclaim.
I can not be thinking of you . . .& I am
just the same.
