I won’t let you go!
22 November 2015
Twice it hovered dark
Above my bluest skies’ rims
An attempt of Death
I looked within it
Prancing around full of glee
Fanciful patterns
Death smiled ever pleased
With my witty play’s antics
Dark prepared for me
While I drunken danced
Much engaged with its shadows
In witty exchange
Twice now eluded
Once a bleeding mess I slept
Stitched back into life
It breathed silent hurt
Sorrow its ache of soul’s reach
As it felt me go
The clawing despair
Unwilling separation
I won’t let you go!
“Please come back to me!”
The sorrow muffling its voice
It said beseeching
I smiled and moved on
Silently into waking
The table I left
Spreading from within
Once mine sole growing tissue
In fortnight halted
Death screamed so shrilly
Even more than my soul’s blues
He wanted my flesh
In agony’s throngs
Renewed at my feet weeping
The fall of unfair
I am holding on
You are mine for the keeping
I won’t let you go!
Freed by his dark clutch
I wandered into blue worlds
Spilt moonbeams in skies
I filled underworlds
With the light of sunflowers
While he followed pale
My light piercing him
Hollow yearning for my skin
His darkness within
I reached still further
Into swollen Eye of Time
Looked into God’s grace
Death followed me still
Into infinity’s realms
The shadow his face
Footsteps in the dark
Brittle bride for the keeping
He told me weeping
Begging to be his
Beyond infinity’s grasp
I danced yet higher
I looked into voids
Light exchanged sparkled glances
Within my bright eyes
Filled with mystery
Of unexpected chances
Of the depths of cries
I flew, twirled curving
Escaping all dark matter
As it sucked endless
I looked back at Death
Told him soothing, don’t you fret
My darling lover
I will now give in
Quit living on borrowed Time
Break the endless loops
Remember the quote
Another chance you will get
Never twice alone
All within without
You will have soon I promise
Teacher tell me now
As the light pushes
The other end of void pulls
I must find out how
My eyelashes kissed
Death held on to me steadfast
Took me to his heart
Said heartbroken, mad
Spilt his tears on jagged end
I won’t let you go!
