bonds of the earth

feeling - memory - world

your greatest feeling fills you

but for a moment

then it is gone

it takes so much more

away with it - you never had time to surrender

you never had that moment space

met with your being - a simple positioning

a wonder of the universe - how tenuous that moment

like a spear slicing into your side

but a miraculous healing takes place

and you are once again whole

but the memory of intense feeling

is suffocating

for a moment

then it is gone

it takes so much more

away with it - your collapse into sorrow or anger

your impending drop

it fell away with the bonds of the earth

when it gave up on your return
