The Two LoversA Poem by Fire-and-IceThe things we see when we look from our own eyes.Sometimes …
My darling
Walks in
stilettos.
She walks up the
walls
With her back
Against the road,
The path that
leads to nowhere.
Her blue dress
Let known our story.
Though
We are …
Conjoined
Like the people
Between the
rocks,
There’s a lot of
going around
To get to this
point;
The events which
drove her,
My beloved,
Up the walls.
This world …
This world is a
hard place,
And her red hair
Corroborate
She’s a
hot-head.
It is not hard
to see,
But nothing is
easy;
We used white ladder
To get hold of
the light,
Even before the
sun
Cast bold shadows.
My lover is
surrounded,
Completely
swallowed up,
And these walls
are not so kind.
All doors are
closed,
Saving one;
The one with the
hand …
The hand that
feeds her the raven
Clawing at her
stomach,
And snatching
the last key;
The only that
can get through to me.
Even if …
She follows the
yellow line,
She is no better
Than the three
souls
Trapped
In the blue
windows.
The car is like
us;
A whole with a
gray half,
But it knows how
to haul her back
To the place before
I exist.
