Stark sublime remarks
sound blatant
under her guise
of being in the dark
and opening my eyes.
She speaks discreetly
words resounding with doubt,
questioning mysteries
I know nothing about.
Confusion
reduces
this wondrous muse
to uninspiring woe;
This happens when
I have to choose
from choices I don't know.
I wave goodbye
to words
like "love"
abandon
feelings
like "touch"
dull
my sense
of knowledge
before it becomes too much
So I dance
alone
without my pride
as madness
fights
with the facts
I hide
in this
tunnel of love
I've crawled inside.
She's the one I belong beside
