sundaze

i find ways in daze
in empty gaze
beyond the gorge
of you and i
homes divide
cities beyond
rivers and seabeds

i ask you
to ask yourself
do you still listen for my song?
oasis and shadows
i always said
i’d follow you till the end of time
to be right
to be exact
to find time past midnight

the pillow was always softer underneath
souls can reach yet you could never
how we were in that moment
in memory i remember
touch always lingers
rough hands
tough palms
nimble features
how you were always afraid of
simple conversation
sunday spent sideways

  1. The chasm that exists between some hearts can never be traversed. But this fact alone cannot quell the flow of love. Hmm Maybe I’ll save this and make it into a poem. hehehe No really..
