[bodytext] => I am nothing So as to say without you And empty canvas thirsty for paint A hopeless sinner sitting waiting for his saint Embody me, baptize me, take me, break me, remake me make me see god Without him I will stay nothing A vaccum filled glass tube A dense lack there of light cant seem to shine through I am to be reborn of a thousand small deaths Depth charges sink like beating hearts into cranial inkwells Teach me to be a kid again How to play with childlike abandon Lets race to the swingset and see who can fly the highest Brightest stars waiting to be wished upon Before I become myself again Store this me so when free will has reclasped the irons You will see what I can be You have the key so when I hit my knees I am humbled Tired of playing dislexic dog Tired of wading through the illusionist’s fog Fired before I ever got the job I am ready willing and able Crucified to a bloodstained poker table Sitting on needles and pins Pinning me down to a lable Trying to not let escape the squeak Climbing the spiral staircase from stomach to heart waiting to hear myself speak Truths swollen dried tongue craves yearns pine for rejuvenating nectar expunged from faith’s quivering petals medals awarded to my brain gut and balls my eyes cry bitter tears that thaw my aortic walls time to feel again time to see again yes its time again time to breathe but for now lets keep it secret just between you and me [comments] => 1 [counter] => 165 [topic] => 62 [informant] => simonwrite [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => spiritual )
