Mismatched

Mismatched

A Story by Charlène Boutin
"

A normalcy we tend to take for granted...

"
Even from afar,
Even after all these miles have 
Thickened and condensed all the
Space in between of our selves,
I can still feel your pain reverbrating through time and through
Me, but no matter how much I try to rub
Away, even if I tried every mend there is
Today, there is nothing that can soothe
Away from your skin and away from my
Thoughts where I cry for your sake, I can't
Stand to witness your decay,
Even though you're alive you just don't seem that
Way.
And your skin,
And your body despised of every thought you
Have despite health despite 
Beauty, it matters not if it's just the wrong
Body you're stuck in
Entrapped in a prison where your soul chokes on
Words that you hear others say, because
They don't understand, they're just fine with their
Body and soul so well matched and they can't even
Think of what else there could be.
Save your breath from them and turn
Away it's okay you can look in my
Eyes I will never despise who you
Are I will stand with you against the
World hand in hand, even though it is far from the
End of the fire that burns through our
Hearts, there are a hundred truths I could
Refute for your good, I will crumble to
Dust before you hit the ground, if I
Must I will burn through your heat.

Here is a soul on fire gazing over the miles and years. So many subtle nuances in life, shades and contrasts, and they confess so much into our lives and relationships. Wishing the search for the perfect match wouldn't come at such a heavy price.

There's more to this world than we see. Artists are gifted with the vision of this world, and can bring forward these visions to others. The world I see goes beyond my eyes, beyond my own life. I hop.. more..
