spinning tunes of gold
whirring and rushing round
lights playing
with the tones of your voice
rings of sound that settle about
(rippling love-lights
like eyes that are full)

blurry eyes peeling away the unapproachable horizon
(to a highway of roaming eyes that search
beyond)
how i and time would crawl to reach
-so, i flew.

separation grasped with hands by a wire
(but i only feel
impressions of you)

missing you in absence
wanting you in presence
(the truth is so undeniable.)

my heart-
caught.

  2. "lights playing

    I like those lines; the interaction of sight and soungd..
    Also, "how i and time would crawl to reach" - even just for the sound (and feel) of it. But the relationship/comparison of "i" and "time" - so true.
