do you ever feel as wasted as I do
by unwavering thirst for the morrow
or do you enjoy the flat saccharin after taste
of yesterday's delirious
i-think-i'm-in-love-with-you lies?
single sentence postcards
cancelled by frustration
delivered on wings of invisible winds;
I know they are there because I can hear them
tickling the chimes by my koi pond
undulate! diverge! dip! rise!
touch all the places you wished you could
when you squandered the chances you never took
evade, fly straight, no detours
no! not through her wood
don't you know you lose part of your soul
when you force yourself to split and moan
or deviate past a single limb
so you can go on
pretending your breath is nothing more
than a subtle summer breeze

Good line!
