Blank page
why have you let me down?
You're supposed to be
& keep me flowing in inspirations
My heart replied
You're the one who's
misread the passages of life
When times got tough you tried your best
to cover your tracks
& bury yourself in excuses
but life is everywhere in this world
there's no place to hide from it
Do you think that not living
will keep you from dying?
Dying is just what you need
You're not being held prisoner
You broke your words
over your own knee
You waved a blank page
but life never accepted your surrender
You weren't brought out of nonexistence
to only dream of being awake
You're my lover & always will be
Your light hasn't burned out
Your connection has shaken loose
I'll make your wire a live one
but you'll have to run
on my electricity
I'll light up your eyes
I'll show you what thirst is for
I'll call you my open flame
Poetry is a service for those who read it
Do nothing
to impede the listening process
Then write & you'll never go wrong
