Arctic Blast 12/15/2014

Shatter my heart

And let it lie

Glistening in the dark

Wet and red.

Now I am awake

And now I hear

Spread out in a shattered pattern

On slick concrete.

Some dreams

Are not meant to be

And some ideas

Are only just that. 

I have imagined

Far more

Than I have done

So bleed me more

And you will hear. 

Tilted and spinning

The end becomes the beginning

And I am back where I was

Mute as a spectator. 

No one can change it

But now I can see it

The hunger I could not control

Driving me on. 

Nothing is the same

And it never will be again

As I lay among the ashes

Buried with myself.

I have returned to where I left

Humbled and silent

On the wings of an angel

Swift and pale.

Obvious as a diamond bullet

Shot into space

In a line of straight inspiration

That never intersects. 

They are gone

And so am I

Sad, lonely,

And forgotten. 

I relive it

For the rest of my life

But the ending is the same

Every single night. 

Until we meet

I wait

In a thousand little pieces

Destroyed and destroying

Everything I can.
