Literature Text

A crippling undertow pulling us along,
Hell in a whisper; Savior in a song.
I took gentle care of that silence,
rage in a breath and eyes full of violence.

                    Jubilant earthquakes shaking resolve.
                     With this darkened City, I fell in love.
                        Double-sided time branching lost memory,
                          Forgiveness a hollow echo in this story.


The frailty of youth packaged in rotting TNT.
Cherry balm kisses and childlike stupidity.

Summer sun baking our skin,
Fireflies lighting our sin.

Vibrations of thoughts better left dead.
Your golden gaze still pounding in my head.

Distance and years have collected against us,
those promises of forever filled with rust.

This old, wrinkled reflection fades and falters;
Regret resigning me to stormy, unholy waters.

Youth wasted, blood tasted.
Shaken heads, empty beds.


Done for…
Sorry `bout the title.

The entire thing is brilliant especially:

"Youth wasted, blood tasted.
Shaken heads, empty beds."
