To long for the explosionA Poem by Ama May CooperI fell in love with the danger the thrill and uncertainty, Seeking to stumble blindly in the dark, Energised by the fear as it surged through my veins. I fell in love with the chance to die, Dancing on the very cusp of fragile existence, One hand clutched to the grim reapers side. The chance to burst into furious flames, To be nothing but energy and beautiful cinders, Free for the rest of eternity. Oh I was hopelessly in love with the very cruelty of the situation, The difficulties placed between my honest affections, The very hurdles I prayed remain for security. I cannot love another being you must understand me, I cannot love what I cannot depend on, I cannot love something that changes with the wind, That grows old and bitter and cold. Im in love with the roar of the elements the gentle caress of the wind, I hear voices in the echoing stillness of the ocean, I am a wild thing living in a mortal cage. How could the predictable betrayal compare? How could the mental slavery ever hope to compensate? For this explosive love I dreamt of Can you cradle me in the endless darkness, Tame my impatient heart and soothe past wounds you did not cause? Can you keep up, hold my hand as I take us all a million miles away. I need the freedom of the very atmosphere Could you hold me tightly and swear i was your whole world Only to let me spread my wings and fly away Would you share in the starlit adventure, throw your cares to the bottom of the ocean, and venture through dimensions by my side? How could you possibly understand the frustration, There is no acceptance of empty affections I cannot believe your attentive confessions your expression of this human love. Lies past still ring fresh in these weary ears Sweet nothings thrown to the dogs Disregarded, dead and meaningless Doubtless I was stronger alone.
