Thoughts @ 12:58 am by Scott Cadence
You bring back days
We sat yellowed under the awning
Before stills were all we had
Of this light year speed
That exterior lining
I realize in seeing you
Ive kept all this time
uplifted in my skin
like tree bark
and pine needles
in palm of my hands
where it finally feels natural
where your careful lips have found me once again
trying to collect the pain between us
un-glove the white chalk and tape
upon my heart
the years of fighting
incandescent throws
of our loves lost
eternal light
I wish now
to only let in

Posted by Christopher J Davidson on 06/23/03 at 11:34 AM Of all of the amazing lines in here I think the one that stands out the most to me is "where it finally feels natural". This is awesome stuff as always with the things you write. Good stuff. Keep it up. |
