Lips locked

A Poem by Janesy

28.7.2009

Seconds to minutes, the watch and dramatics
Cling on, for this is the sense of ease
Fragile wings, we're diseased
By the chains, rusty however intact,
We heaved that sigh of relief. You hear - that?
Knock, no not the truth, it hurts.
Knock knock, but the Words are but only words.
hey come in. You're welcome.
Killer of joy. I apologize. Now Would you look me in the eye?
Revealing the unrevealed, concealing the unconcealed.
it was said then that the believer disbelieves,
Tell me why - oh yes the truth, of course, I remember now.

What have I. Those hesitant words. Those shaky lines?
Insufficient obviously. But in abundance were the unsaid.
Milk - never spilled, though I wished it had.
Sure it'll make up for those cloudy eyes.
Tears - However little they were.
The pessimism in optimism,
familiarity, obviously.
I still wonder about that milk. I try not to.

Those smiles shall only return by grace.
This broken glass will never hold me.
Undeserving. Am I not?
