Beyond Connection
2 September 2015
I constructed you
You then deconstructed me
Laughed, hid the pieces
The key to the mind
Lies within thoughts’ meanders
Keys to heart flicker
Captured and released
Unwilling pact of freedom
Misplaced denied bonds
My hands lay helpless
Numbness then blood flowing back
Tingling sensations
Phantom cords cut all
Wounds that had crusted over
Where salt cauterised
Seeking the prison
Of mind that had most mattered
Cotton for the soul
Beguiled mind relived
A lifetime of servitude
To masters that fleeced
A shiver calling
To birth of a new era
Where slaves buy life back
A penny for Love
No quarters given today
Dime dozen’s fickle
Your form bathed in light
Cast against my darkness spelt
Chance of renewal
The candle’s flame lisped
Slithering towards my heart
Whispering new tongue
Every language ours
My thoughts trail off into yours
Beyond Connection
Ears pick up no sound
Artful measures a hiss feigned
Lungs filled in silence
