I don't think I've ever written anything along these lines but I thought I would share this with my faithful few; one of my favourite pieces.
Feel free to leave comments, as always :)
Finally I See
Long since have I been blind
Many things
Distant memories
Like dusty bats hidden at the back of caves
Long unexplored
When I saw
It was through closed eyes
And with curious fingers
Which spoke to lips
While he responded through same
And I knew it was not to be
Simply one dilated pupil to another
But his deep chords to my eardrums
And my breath to the skin of strong shoulders
While we interchanged
Between bear and honey
For suspended moments in time
And through closed eyes
Things clearer
Finally I see
Long since have I been blind
Many things
Distant memories
Like dusty bats hidden at the back of caves
Long unexplored
When I saw
It was through closed eyes
And with curious fingers
Which spoke to lips
While he responded through same
And I knew it was not to be
Simply one dilated pupil to another
But his deep chords to my eardrums
And my breath to the skin of strong shoulders
While we interchanged
Between bear and honey
For suspended moments in time
And through closed eyes
Things clearer
Finally I see
