Never mine...

When I am with you
I forget…
…the past,
…the pain,
…who I am,
…WHAT I am.

When I am with you
There is…
…hope,
…love,
…passion.

When we are apart
I am…
…broken,
…forlorn,
…distressed.

Yet you are
…unattainable,
…Irresistible,
…never going to be mine.

Mercy...

Roughly,
Invisible hands
Hold my eyelids closed
Against my will
A kaleidoscope of memories
Of your face,
Your smile,
Your essence…
Flitter unabated
On this makeshift screen
The past bleeds out
as gushing tears
Unwelcome…
Unnecessary…
The pain that courses through my veins
Replaces the blood
That sang out your name
STOP!!
I can’t take anymore…
Free me from this prison
And wipe my mind clean…
Leave no trace…
I want you gone…
I beg of you
Have mercy
Relinquish your hold
Upon my tortured soul...
