Silver Thread

Linked hearts, lost keys to rusted shackles… now separate, never separated… love and hate intermingle never segregated… I pushed my ear to the door of my heart to see if it was still knocking. I pushed my fear to the floor in my mind as the emptiness is still shocking

Me… in this broken place

Me, I stand strong disgraced…

by what my life has become as it twirls, twists around what you’ve done.

I was finally smiling in my heart; the good part had just begun

To live…

Living, loving, dying breaths wasted

I tasted life…

Then you smashed it like glasses at Greek weddings but with a different intention...

its like

Weaving in and out of a ballet of metal giants like a single silver thread… threaded lives… my mind rests upon your heart… thousands of miles in between our love now… thousands of reasons to break our marriage vows… but I vowed to love you and so I try… I try to commit and pray, but instead inside I die. Like flowers facing the cold sting of the fall… not the autumn change of breeze but the fall that brings a man to his knees… to his knees to beg, to plead, to say FATHER PLEASE!!! Please give me what I need to be free because I’m not free from this hurt, this pain… the brokenness of loneliness from emptiness is wild. I cannot hold her reigns, I’m spinning out of control, I no longer feel whole… there’s a hole where my heart used to beat and now you can only hear an echo… the resound of tears falling, a man sprawling, laid out, a living corpse, a broken stone, a dying leaf, a falling petal. My time is brief; a single breath gives life and a single lie great strife… I need to be freed. So I fall to my knees and I beg, then I plead and I say FATHER TAKE ME PLEASE!!! Please because I want to be free, I need to be freed from being me.
