Restless

The muse suffers alone whilst I listen in the wind

Resting in the drift and flow of a thousand suns

Bask in the shine of a cerebral thought 

Until two become one and divide by the night from day

 

Rest your head on my chest and breath a while 

Lengthen the rust stains of life brushed on a pure white canvas

Walk between respect and trust as the demons bay in your thoughts 

 

Deceit drips in dozens

Ambiguity colours self control

 

Before the storm comes

Rains will wash this skin 

Stained 

In kisses of vermillion ink

 

Walk in my dreams

Another taste of you

Tainted

Generously savor this skin

 

Bitter

 

Despised 

 

Platted in your hair

Silken threads of gold

Glisten till yesterday comes

Silver tears congeal in the dust

Staining the earth red

 

Between the crevices a solitary heartbeat rests

Found only by those who bleed the same as you

Distant though my heartbeat beats sliced on treason

 

Uncomfortable when you gaze upon a clear day

Anxious at the premise that presents itself in these shadows

Apprehensive at the meeting when lovers cross the dimensions

 

Restless I begin 

Restless I end

Restless I cut this skin deep

Restless I lick this rusty blade

Restless I slice this tongue in obscure patterns

Restless in the blood I bleed for you

 

Restless

 

Restless
