I tried to find you here
The words were so clear
in my mind
I pulled and pulled to find
you
And And and you were
Unique. Abused. Broken.
Perfect.
I scale the walls of
this sorbitol creation.
This bittersweet agony,
you kill me.
The empty space;
The empty vessel;
The empty heart;
I found your shadow.
The corpse it left behind,
withered; a wasted mass
of molecules and atoms.
You still had your eyes
But even they didn't shine.
We held hands
You came apart like dust in the wind
We made love
I drowned in the burrows of your heartland
I faintly recall what you said-
Something about Souls and Stalemates?
Or was it soulmates...?
No matter, we are No longer-
And the musicians have all gone home.
