Bound - 2008

[tearmeagain]

you were once so far away
little teardrop
in the corner
of my
eye.
twinkling. glimmering.
waiting for a chance
to slide down salty flesh,
and sob.
& oh, how you'll sob
waiting out the pacing,
risking the rocking & wailing.
it hurts & makes you cringe,
but out of the spirals,
something comes alive.
something new. ambitious.
a sparkling vortex of opportunity.
and so, I unleash the flood gates,
self expression pouring from my soul,
and set it free
in a sultry paradise of
liberty;
once, only and forever seen.
