A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

elements in jigsaw motion

 

 

when the chemistry withers

evicts itself to hither then yon

 

i will rest against your heart,

hoping the dissolution

retains a warm solution

within my breast,

 

an agent to buffer the dissolving---

one to keep us solving

the puzzle

 

that is us.

You have given words to those feeling and hopes that are often contained within the soul, finding no words. Brilliant and soul searching poetry, Jacob.

You are the writer who disects thoughts, relationships. You are the artist who can see the dilemmas of the human soul and produce art from them. I remain your envious fan.

And isn't this what we all hope for in a relationship? That the foundation is strong enough to withstand the dissolution of chemistry that brought us together. Hopefully the bonds are covalent and many things shared.
