Whispers




 Mesmerised


As my generational powers

Show me you
In vivid lucid dreams

Not where
You've been
Or things you've seen

But you
Alas now absent

And as I lie down lonely
And broken
 
In here
Thinking of your absence

In The Great In-Between

No longer to lay 
Speak with 
Or hold thee

In my gifted dreams 
When I see thee

I know my candle still burns 

Somewhere
In you 

As it burns
Within me
As I move around 

For what powerful thing can ever be found 

To burn you alive

What thing
That has it's own sound and ministry

Than a deep dream
Of a spiritual bond 

Beyond 
Infinity

Or the shelf life of uranium-235
That thrives

As it slips into high gears
In The Great In-Between

And makes your soul
Vibrate in familiar frequencies

Ending in a heart-stopping crescendo

As your emotional tears
Enters
Hyperdrive
