Attached

I grow weary of the sun's cooperation

Always in my eyes as I drive to the edge of the world

Every time I drift away it pulls me back from the crevice of the place where i belong

Faint desperation

Apologetic regurgitation

I grow tired of the sun's competence

Of keeping me awake when all I want to do is sleep

 

When I sleep

Sometimes I dream

Of falling in love with you

 

Your damn volatile presence

Creates a distortion in my ignorance

I feel like a puppet without the strings

A chimaera without a face

 

And though I'm blinded I struggle to accept the unknown

I try and I try but I can't forgive what's been done

And though I've been rejected by the light

I still pray to the sun when I'm at my darkest

Competence is aggravating

Competence is aggravating when we are in misery. Loved this imagery!!

Spectacular Presenation!

The sun is doing what? You grow tired of what? The middle verse could be a bridge for love song, I wish my head would stop racing around these well composed puzzle pieces of poetry that together become an ultimate whole. Loved it! Your best yet, I mean that. ~ Lady A ~
