Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Heart on fire

The flames licked eagerly at my heart

How long had we been apart?

It seemed a lifetime now

But truth bends in sad dismay.

 

I try to stare into infinity

But see just tomorrow before me.

Its all too late my psyche states

Its all gone its all to late.

 

My embalmed mind kisses

All that it misses and misses.

Florid in obscurity

Searching for that purity.

 

Where are you I loudly refrain

But receive only blowback disdain.

All is quiet all is still.

They say take another pill.

 

But thats not the answer

I shout silently out loud.

Body itching for redemption

Its the long lost time for misgiven caution.

 

Where are you all I miss

I only wanted one more kiss

But that can never happen 

There is no start

Mind replaced by fractured heart.
