Unspoken Kiss
Unspoken Kiss
By u/forgotyournameagain
My worries in truth can be dwarfed, covered in shroud— to be eclipsed;
Yet they ring loud enough to eclipse the world, my fears a memory of an unspoken kiss.
They cloud my judgment, blind my eyes, these invisible yet softspoken clouds,
Dense with white and a silent fog, fog that isolates me and the chilling crowds.
But there is no one— no one real; none but me 'neath the dirt, the worm, and the rock,
A morgue that houses none but me, inside the fear, my only lock.
I wonder if I am the only one planning, funerals for a self not yet dead,
Or am I carrying foolish demons, foolishly to a tear smeared bed?
But that doesn't matter, for demons don't, for the love of God— truly exist,
They are the ghosts of my fearful doubt; memories of a man I missed.
This is the tale of a cage I built, the tale of an eternal tryst,
In remembrance of a memory grand; all just for an unspoken kiss.
