waterless land

I am not afraid to leave home 

Even though I will never find the same tree twice 

One is rotten and one is creating fruit

Where the juice leaks onto my hands and down my arms 

I won’t give in to nostalgia 


I will have remnants of you

Bringing them up out of me uncontrollably 

Forever even though your diminished personality has left me for good 


far away from home

there is a waterless land

filled with cacti, sucking dry

the energy and hope of the youth.

  And the wrath came slow You were made to sink to hell with me  Nothing was to turmoil is except each other Speaking fire to one another  Leaking anger from knowing kinder love is present where it shouldn’t be Tell me when we will free each other  When will time stop and we can unravel from each other  From the toxic blood filled veins of forbidden love We will see at the end the hearts each of us have  Filled with a love that we are punished for having  With many aches and desires we have Time will always be your enemy
