until we reach the tower

until we reach
the tower.
+++++++++++++

Today the sun
is
A Deception;

(cold at it's
core.)

A fire that
gives
no HeaT.

(or flame
which burns
no more.)

+

Come down
these
winding halls
with me,

(to see
what
cant be
seen.)

and shed
those
snakeskin
memories!!

(haunting
you
in dreams.)

+

Today I
sit
in stark
denial.

Wishing
I
could stand,

and resurrect
your
Yesterday-Smile!

(that once
had
seemed
a
Permanent
Brand.)

+


Walk up
these
winding stairs
with
Me...

(until we
reach the
tower.)

for therein
lies
Our Eternity!!

(Graced by
Heavens Power.)

the fixer

the fixer.
++++++++++

she handed me
her
heart and asked
if
i could fix it.

(no love, but
i
can break it
better
than the last
damn
fool who broke
it First.)

then
her eyes started
telling
stories of a careless
storm
blowing across an
endless
Sea.

and i found
myself laughing
into
the Maelstrom.

(what could this
mean?)

+

and
if i gave you
my
heart love, would
you
pull the "free to a
gentle set of hands"
sticker off?

it's
really just
a
 makeshift
bandage
i
put there to scare
away
angels incapable
of
mending me.

but i'd understand
if
you chose to hand
it
back before your
hands
start freezing!

(then
we could dance this
dance
another small eternity
as
I love you in the dark.)
