Although there
are two of us here, in my heart
I walk alone
My soul screams
to be set free
but only a sigh
emerges
Crushed with silence,
detached
Every nite, I walk
these purple fields
My knees scraped
and bleeding from the peppled ground
Fingernails break
as I wail into this fragrant earth
My desire is to
break bread with you
and trace your
smile with my fingers
Come and harvest
this soul
I cannot do it
alone, and I am tired of trying
My silent
prayer is for you to know this
Dreams spread out
into waking hours
I run into a patch
of pure moonlight
It consumes me
with its beauty
The little girl
inside peeks out, and I want to hold her
But she is in a
free fall
And all I can do
is watch
