SONGLESS

We are two boats

Tethered together on a stormy sea

We think this rain is love

But this thunder is only meant

To shatter the heaven

Above us.

The clouds will clear

Two suns will rise 

On either horizons

Yet we cannot set sail 

Towards the light

The chains of our love bind us

Into monstrous grasps 

Of twisted heartlines.

We struggle

And tug at 

This Agony

A dark night lies 

Between us

And ahead

Oh 

What a wonderful light!

So let there be only 

Gasps of pain now

Lest we should succumb

To the screams that left us

Songless.
