Let me inside your warmth
Watch the sky with me
For shooting stars
To fill our pockets with dreams
Having nothing is everything
Free to be the way we are
Meaningless entanglements
Stripped away like cobwebs
Reveal flesh and bone as once we were
Vital breath quickens
To feel each stroke of the clock
Take something away
As we grasp each waking hour
Something desperate grows
In the back of the mind
Meeting mortality head on
In dark alleys of the night
I seek and find the door

Harbor me in silence
Let me inside your warmth [comments] => 1 [counter] => 237 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Merry [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Harbor me in silence
Let me inside your warmth

Delicate and rich as well as raw and sad. I don't know which is worse - the sensitivity to the loss of things or the loss itself. Perhaps the sensitivity to things slipping away is why we load ourselves up with all the other stuff, as some kind of compensation, when what we really want is the womb-like security and bliss felt with another. A fine poem.
