Trying to organise
those transparent thoughts
that burst like a supernova
within me. A cosmic orchestra piece
being played on instruments
that are ever so slightly out of key.
I fell in love with a dream
that was never supposed to be,
but I looked at infinity
and she stared back at me.
I try to change the running track,
swap the music, pick another path.
But as my sweat drenched fingers click
on the app I realise that the songs
are only in my head
and they are drowning all the thoughts
that normally reside in there.
What if I turn the clock back?
will that change the path, or leave me
stranded an island paradise instead?
Just me and the sands of time laying ahead.
I slide my fingers over her hands
and she drifts away,
fine sand in sunless skies.
My beached heart cries.
If only I could find an off switch,
blank out this mind twitch,
find a different stich
to start to unravel ,
then maybe my mind
could once again travel
to some far away star,
where I can listen
to the sound of my heart
without hearing my
own transparent thoughts
saying to just let yourself be happy
for once, let time take
you on her dance
and let love in.
