Smashed frames

I wish upon the stars of
Your coveted mind,
Covered in cobwebs of thoughts 
Avoiding mine,
Wishful thoughts asking why they exist,
Passive buoys raise bodies to surfaces
Stained with your words,
Remarks as fleeting as dotted stars,
Mapping the route to treasure
Never buried.
Beneath the sand sinks hope and glory,
Born with teeth as thick as mountain walls,
Silver water gleaming 
Impossible thoughts.
Do not forget me,
My madness,
The sadness you sensed in my eyes alone,
Do not wear this overcoat over your feelings
To disguise your own jigsaw puzzle mind.
You know how I crowned you,
Knighted your head held higher,
Than all the faces in golden kingdoms.
I wish for you
And pray,
Make not me say it,
You perfect
Scar,
How I fell through skeleton piles
To find you, to say farewell
To tantalising glints of glitter stained
Pictures,
Rinsing the image of
Life before you.
