Through The Leaves (poem)
Ticking
Ticking
Through the leaves I wonder
Brushing my face
Calling me back
Soothing
Fulfilling
Unknown
-
Ticking
Ticking
Cold stillness fills the night
Drawing me in
To waiting arms
Endless
Questioning
Nothing
-
I cannot escape
The wake of this moment
Which holds me entwined
Ticking
Ticking
-
Endlessly searching
For one more heart broken
Lost wandering soul
Ticking
Ticking
-
Is there anything at all
Outside the weight of this veil
Outside confusion and pain
Outside the comfort of hopelessness
Stroking my face
Using the night
Calling
Beckoning
Always
-
Ticking
Ticking
Lost inside her garden
With one more breath
Of all now past
Dancing
Endlessly
In love
-
And that was all
