Returned love letters
by:[email protected]

ONCE I RETRACTED REFRAMED TEXTURES
NOW YOUR SKIN HAS NO SOFTNESS
FORGIVE ME MY BLINDNESS
I CHASE
DEJAVUE / DEJAVUE

SILK SCARS BLOWING IN GOOD BYE WINDS OF LOSTNESS

(A HANFULL OF RETURNED LOVE LETTERS)

I EXSPOSE MY LIPS TO YOUR CAUTIONS
PUSHING PASS LOVELESS
SWALLOWING NOT EXCEPTING TERMINAL

I HAVE NO USED OF ALL THE LOVE LETTERS THAT I KEEP WRITING
YOU SEND BACK THEM BACK TO ME UNOPEND

(return to sender she's invisable)
(return to sender she's invisable)

STILL I KEEP THEM
HOLDING ON TO SOME SORT OF RETRIBUTION

TRYING TO PRESERVE THEM BY HOLDING THEM CLOSELY AND UP AGAISNT MY EXCRUICIATING HEART
THINKING MAYBE TOMORROW-MAYBE TOMOOROW
SHE'LL ANSWER ONE OF THEM

STILL EVEN AS THE NEXT MIDNIGHT HOUR COMES AND APPROACHES
I'M SITTING FORMULATING EVEN MORE TEARS INTO SYLLABLES
TRYING TO CALL ON YOUR HEART
WITH ANOTHER LOVE LETTER

WHERE HAVE ALL THE STARS THAT WE USED TO CALL ON AT MIDNIGHT
GONE TOO

TOMOOROW IS JUST AN IMITATION REPEATING OF IT"S SELF
LETTING ME KNOW THAT MY WISHES HAS NOT TAKEN FLIGHT
HAS NOT TAKEN FLIGHT
UP-UP-UP

AND I'M CRUSHED INTO MERE FRAGMENTS
ONCE AGAIN THE RETURNED LETTTERS READS

(return to sender she's invisible)

sometimes i go for walks
i follow the blowing of the wind
watching falling leaves sail away

sometimes they hypnotizes me
I loose track of time

days hours and minutes

having no preset-destination of existance
 
ONLY

(return to sender she's invisible)

not anymore counter resemblance too your lips
once of my longing - no seperations

their was no flaws in the way used to kiss for
HOURS and HOURS
no time for words not letting in air

we knew eternity
each others poetry each others hearst
and
each others tears

you beleived in me and I beleived in you
we were each others destinys

BUT STILL IT TEARS ME APART
DAY BY DAY
NIGHT BY NIGHT

EACH TIME I READ AGAIN

RETURN TO SENDER SHE'S INVISABLE!

It is very evident of a lot of pain here. Sad to read.

"Sitting formulating more tears into syllables"...what a powerful image. Your pain comes through powerfully and yet this could be a song that touches and uplifts many.

Johnson Bobby,
I wish you the process of total reverse healing from the past. Your poem is so intense, so real and the mourning for this past time so obvious. Bless your pure sharing. I loved it and read it very slowly just taking in every word of this history's reality. Beautiful are tears. God Bless you Kathy
