- you replied
- one night
- when anxiety did haunt
- my skin, my ligaments, my every bone,
- wondering when comes my time to return home.Let the seals
- -
- be broken; let the truth
- be revealed!
- It's been a long time since I let myself feel
- anything other than monotony, playing the marathon
- runner in sight of the finish line,
- the last of the homework
- or typing 'til midnight.This draconic blood I could never still,
- -
- but still I managed to amass myself a hill
- of words not spoken, not written down,
- enough to bury me or in them myself drown.
- For, I must admit, I was planning
- on being at least somewhat dead by now
- with no need for verse or musical tone,
- just coma's deep sleep 'til you come
- and finally bring me home."You know what kind of future I desire,"
- -
- you affirm
- as I burn
- on my own funeral pyre
- over and over again every day,
- impatient for egress together to Sablade.All the writing guides I've ever read say
- -
- that it's kind of like learning to ride a bike.
- You never really forget, but sometimes
- you have to get off and go for a hike
- dragging the damn thing alongside
- you until the road is flat and smooth again.And sometimes a friend
- -
- lends
- you a hand.I turn my head to the sunsetting sky
-
- bleeding purple and blue and discarded peach rinds.
- Half-delirious, you're not far behind
- me
- as I hold up my hand to catch the waking breeze.
- A head on my shoulder, a hand on my belt.
- "Do you hear the leaves rustling? It's our wealth."

- -
- being one person in two bodies.
- It's surreal to experience bilocality,
- but I'd miss you something fierce.Even though there are times
- -
- when each other we cannot stand,
- they stand few and far between.
- There is no deal that can be dealt by the divine
- to make me discard this life of ours newly began.You said it once before, and it still rings true:
- -
- "Lethe, I don't want to ever lose you."
- And lose me you would if you let me subsume
- into your heart when pangs
- the pains of existence yet again.In emergency I gave you part of my soul.
- -
- Does that mean we won't ever again be alone?
- Maybe in some sense. But in others I hope
- you get as much time
- to by yourself unwind
- every night when from work you come home.I love you, you know. And I only want
-
- that you get as much freedom as you've always sought.
- And if with me's the future
- you've always desired,
- there's no need to yearn - it you've already got.
