Motionless Souls   3

My minds awake (But my body’s dead)

 

My mind is alive now

But my body is dead,

I have no paralysis

And my parts in good stead

 

Lost in my cocoon

In my tumultuous head

People don’t understand

The path that I tread

 

I am happy with me

Though much has been said

I don’t work or produce

But my needles still thread

 

Am I owed a living, I enquire?

As my eyes turn red,

I haven’t hurt anyone

Should I kill instead?

 

I reflect on this life

As I lay here in bed

My day has been good

But the darkness I dread

 

Twenty one is no age

I’ve not even wed,

With this life I can’t cope

I’ll consider I’ve fled

 

When dawn beckons

My veins will be bled

I won’t even remember

The last tear that I shed

 

Tomorrow when my mind wakes

I’ll awake when it’s dead……

Motionless Soul

 

Oh melting limbs in

This twisted burning wreck;

I remember

I remember

I reach out in

My inferno of solitude

I am real no longer

But my soul has not dispersed;

It’s attached to a flickering

Ember of motionless earth

Memories

 

 

My love, I think you should forgive me;

To remember this land is not a thought

That is forbidden. There will always be

A beauty in England that is past taught; 

A land that breathed, a sky that shone,

An earth that toiled supreme-soil,

In its absence I was never alone,

Curled and secure in its unbroken coil                               

 

                        What is left, my memories I have to keep;

                        The days pass through an acrid-overture  

Into an endless night. A dark-restless sleep

On a heartless bed, palpitating its mother’s cure,

A land that loses its heart, will lose its soul,

A land that loses its roots, will not flower,

Denied the promise of its functional whole,        

                        Open and insecure from its unstable tower.

              

                         My love, we no longer have pure water streams;

                         The birds have left us with a silent cry

 On a flightless-light. The hazy beams

 Obscure our eyes from the beauty of the sky;

 I cannot be forgiven for this perpetual cocoon,

 I am totally responsible for the part I play,                                                                

And when light turns back to dark too soon

My memories are for keeps, I may need them someday.

Encounter

 

As our flesh encounters

And our weary bones unite

We both know that often

Is not as often as it might

 

The clock strikes one now

And the broken-bond withdraws,

It was not the same some say

As the night you slept with whores

 

As the morning mist encounters

Dispersing-droplets on our parts

Our minds may be forgiven

For the dampness in our hearts

 

Blonde

 

Her partner leaves for relief

A beautiful blonde stares at me

She knows she is safe

That her flesh is forbidden

Otherwise would she have stared at me?


One Night Stand

 

We stare from afar, the door’s ajar

We know that the fluidity between

Are condemned corpses will break are solemn vows,

So we turn and look away…...Tick

We turn and look once more ..Tick

We look no more…………….Tock
