Swells of Glassy Mystery
June 20, 2015
Your eyes are deep, dark pools,
Swells of glassy mystery,
That pretend to flood when you laugh and cry.
Oh, how I long to escape their icy grasp,
But curiosity creates a never-ending battle
Between myself and I.
Your heart is a target,
A chamber of my past,
That pretends to mark the moments of yesteryear.
Oh, how I crave to aim at that frigid, bloodless shell,
But the hunt creates a never-ending battle
Between myself and here.
Your arms are blockades,
Restraints on my soul
That pretend to offer a view.
Oh, how I pray to end the torment
But love creates a never-ending battle
Keeping me with you.
