Disconnected

By Walter Burns

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Incoherent, disconnected A piece of me has fallen through Falling, drifting often weightless Until the time when I see you If I expand just one more time From the void that is my heart Heaving streaks and trailing dust You just may shatter me apart If I put my arms around you Would you catch my fallen pieces In the void, you'd hear me screaming In the grip of love, releases Nakedness and disillusion When I fall from dreams I fear Enter in and cause confusion That I'd feel that you are dear On the cusp of fleeting moment A piece of me has fallen through I hear the words and fall to sleep The cliff I near, reads: "I love you."
