Heal Me

Heal Me

A Poem by Michael Howell

Here, again,

Where our paths collide

I finally realize

 

Home is like a mystery

Like a melody, unresolved

The hole in my heart grew louder

My begging mind grew larger

 

Did your arms act on their own?

Did you lips move without saying?

My heart pulsed, I want to scream

YOU DON’T NEED ME, YOU DON’T NEED ME AGAIN!

 

Here, again,

Where our paths collide

I finally realize

 

Flatted, slated memories

My mind could not resolve itself

But you fill my rest, sharp my flat

Your cadence fills the void

 

Intrigue, that’s not what I am

I need you, babe, I do

I’m leaking again, you see

I DO NEED YOU, I DO NEED YOU AGAIN!

 

Here, again,

Where our paths collide

I finally realize

 

You fix me,

You bend me,

You break me,

You heal me.

 

You make sense of me

You stare into my soul

I need you again.

 

Here, again,

Where our paths collide

I finally realize

I still love you.

"Where our paths collide" Sometimes our paths cross those of another over and over again and yet, they are lost to us. Sometimes they see us and love us, then break our spirit. This poem carries great longing and sadness. Still, it remains hopeful. Nicely done.

This made me think of how we keep on meeting with people and never realize they were meant for us. I mean, we might keep on meeting the same person everyday, conflicting our thoughts and feelings for them. And in the end we finally realize we love them.
You portrayed just that. Beautifully.
Brilliant work =]
