A Regulated Sonata
Deeply inspired by a piano cover for a song called “With a thousand
words to say but one”…the heart never, ever forgets. Wrote this in 6 minutes,
the length of the song itself...
6 minutes, granted
Permission from my agnostic lord,
To shed you from these reinforced tonsils
To undo God’s whisper of 2008,
I would
To undo all my darkened hours,
I would
I taste the bastion of clouded whispers
Relinquishing greener pastures
4 minutes remaining
…
I still miss you.
The yesterday
Of you
But, today,
I grab exponential smile
With serenity plated exhales,
That you’re gone
I picture how irregular my heartbeat
Would become
If you whispered carnivorous greetings upon
These unfiltered eyelids
60 seconds
…
As the landlord of my domain,
I evict you
Still leaving a window cracked
Similar to my 3rd eye
Forever dreaming
For the yesterday of you
