![]() Flood HeartA Poem by Gem MarieTake me back to the night when my heart grew weak
Standing on the ice cold street Our eyes fixed watching nervously this frenzy a sudden urgency to hold me The magnets beneath our skin began to pull us closer to a place I've never been before Two autos weaving in and out Dizzy losing control in a vacant parking lot leaving trails of fish tails imprinting on the white of snow that is delicately crashing from above because it has no where else to go Unrehearsed, our desires are mapped out with the paints of the universe My heart has set my chest on fire as a survival instinct and it seems i have you to thank It all began deep in December a warm ember carved in the center of my heart and it continued to burn like needles that break skin apart resembling tattoo art I've held in a million cries The salt runs down, dries, blood stream river denies a part of my entity I need so all I do is bleed and I dont want to proceed or precede whatever the words may be because none of them make sense any more and thats something that will get hard to ignore because these words constitute my entire reason for being and im not sure if these people are seeing the seriousness in how i can't decipher which one cuts more my life or this double edged knife and im still trying to understand this lack of harmony or so called strife people get cut, thats life 6 in the morning and my memory hard drive needs to take five
These sheets we toss are crisp like the air that traces my sound as i mouth three words that you seem to revolve around And these days they shine but its nothing compared to you The ocean hasnt seemed so blue where im standing These waves if they crash on me they crash on you I've never been here before Your something so beautiful If we are keeping score, these comatose kisses You've got me for sure And light doesnt stay the same
It could be everything and nothing And its something I became Red high aurora blue low nox You are the chip cold cube in my whiskey on the rocks You always said i would know where to find you You always said i would know what this means I need to know if this is out of your routine So tell me if this is what you mean © 2009 Gem MarieReviews
