Kim’s Song

I stand here on the fake grass

Looking down at the burnt orange veil

They have drawn between me and you

The crones whisper their spells

In a vain attempt to keep us apart

They jab me with their bony spears

But I am safe in my armor of ice

They tempt me with plates

Narcotics to break our communion

I stay the course

In the dark house you wait for me

I hear you walking the hall

In the creaking of the long floor boards

As I turn my head

Your shadow is always in the corner of my eye

Sitting in front of the fireplace

I hear you in the dripping of the sink upstairs

On that often shared couch

I find my only comfort

Wrapped in your song

Alright this hit me in different areas and takes me in more than one direction.

#1 Two Lovers unable to be together
#2 Death and Separation
#3 The everyday chronic pain, which forces one to be half the person they truly are

Very well done hun!
