I'm lost.
Asketh - Anonymous
how come you’re lost? are you lost with someone, or are you lost alone? :(
look here, my wayward sailor, and you’ll see,
that at home you soon will be.
older and older the daybreak grows,
in the distance, the rooster crows.
one hand raised, then a sudden slap,
all is lost, and he’ll never come back.
forgive me, dear wife, but i have no say
in who the ocean decides to take away.
i’m drifting in the ocean,
as a boat without a sailor.
inhale, exhale and repeat again,
going through the motions,
but never truly living.
the ebbing and flowing waters
tug away at my soul,
bringing me closer to
and farther from
nowhere.
I'm lost.

i feel it deep inside, that residual glow,
of the time in a land before, passed.
with the long days and sleepless nights,
it grows as does Hunger.
how i wish to stay again:
i am, but a visitor, in the silent night.
slowly, slowly, my tears fall.
when can i Feast again?
it sounds like the snapping of steel ropes,
as the wheels creak into sparks,
on the metal parallel rows.
inch by inch, it crawls,
the silver beast makes it’s way,
but i find that i have no patience at all.
whatever has it got to do with me,
when you do this to yourself?
over and over again you make time wait
when it stops for no one.
it’s so difficult to sleep at night
when all the creatures line up at the window,
peering in and drooling
at the sight of a hunched over girl
in the corner,
clutching her knees to her chest,
rocking to and fro.
singing softly,
“i need to feel something”.
let’s feast
feels good to pick at the keys,
typing out all my fears in the dark.
strange how my nightlight has become
this rectangular screen.
when i first get back,
i’m greeted with black.
not the usual comforting silence,
but an empty yet consuming dullness.
what happened to you?
cascading water, the rushing stopped
by a metal plate with holes that allow
pressurized gates where the droplets
can form one, by one, and still come together
to tumble out and down, onto my skin.
trickling down in a hurried pace of a slow race,
they come to a halt where your hands meet my waist.
pull me closer, you. all showers must have
(shower)head.
hold the cool metal tightly in your hand
and rip it straight out of the confining loops
give me your belt; lay it on my skin.
in quick successions as you begin,
draw it out slowly and really hear the
swish
whip
crack
for every sting.
ice blue shards that pierce
through the darkness of the night,
he sings to me in the gleaming moonlight.
whisper softly, honey.
i’m trying to sleep >_>
