No words spoken
In quite some time
Jumbled thoughts in my mind
That all wanna come out at once
And I can’t decide which ones I should say first
Or
Which ones are actually true
And which of those are really just a reflection of you
And what you planted
When you weren’t grounded
Seeds of illusion blossoming within the layers of my subconscious
That consciously play out
When I’m out to play
In the streets
In the sheets of strangers
Who
Often have a strange resemblance to you
Who
I know all too well
But no so much
A touch of affection
Moments of passion
When fingertips trace the deep brown
Invisible scars
That you left when you left
Warm breaths
Traveling from my chest
To my shoulder
To my neck
Hardening my nipples
Hoping that the heat would have the opposite affect on my heart
Losing more of me to find myself
In the dark
Places
Where I sought solace
In men
In women
Who were lost
All the same
Their embraces
Incomparable to the ones of those
That I was missing
Until I got enough
Of getting high
And coming back down
Where the ground was still covered
In
Leaving tracks that stalked me
Haunted me
Even in my dreams
So that I became afraid of my sleep
And tired
Of running
From the sound
Of my own voice
