Fragments of you

 

If I took plates of imagination

and threw them to the floor,

if I sifted through

the fragments,

what could be found

in the remains

laying over the ground?

Would it be memories

cracked into pieces?

Or dust of futures

I've yet to see?

Would it be

the broken crockery

of you and me?

Would it be a mockery of every

dream I've ever seen come true?

Or the shards of love

that I feel for you

that will forever

greet me?

 

If I took every

memory wrapped

piece of my life,

and crushed it to dust,

would I still be able

to find the essence

of you in every grain?

I trust I would.

You live in my every dream.

I see you when I blink

in the slow moments

between sleeps.

 

If I took mirrors of illusion,

and set them to fall,

like domino's in a row,

if I watched them blow,

spreading their shards

in every direction,

would they conjure up

the image of you?

Like a hologram painted

across my reality.

Would you live in the view,

always there,

in everything we could do?

 

If I could take

all of my nerves,

and pull out the ones

that tell me to keep quiet,

if I kept the ones

telling me to be brave,

and wrapped them

tightly around my body,

to wear

the strength they give,

would you do the same?

Would you

whisper my name to me?

Let me know

that you hear every word

I pour into the air.

Or would you leave me there?

A frayed ball of nerves,

struggling for air.
