hardly

By skully

Hardly noticed you at first you were just there
Then we started to spend time together
And suddenly you were my everywhere
In my mind in my heart in my sleep I turned it started

So slowly at the first beat of the bar
Tired turn down eyes locked
And you warmed me inside like never before
I knew it was wrong against some Gods law

But my god is my heart and I looked
And there you dwelled and it seemed that
That was how it always had been and what’s
More always would be could be but

That’s not the way it turned out forces out
Of mind that I may never understand that I never wish
To fathom or comprehend tore us apart
And as an eye blinked I was ten thousand miles

Away on a strange and beautiful island
But could no longer see beauty believe in hope
Or love or what was meant to be if in matter of
Fact we could never be so I could never be me,

Myself and I was dead. Soul shrunk afternoons
And months and years past and I thought i had it all
But had lost it all you never let me in to forgive
What had gone and then maybe

10 years later you appear and for just a moment
or two I breathed again one vast gulp of you
A plummet love more powerful than time itself
Or the weak attempts of rhythm to try

To describe the ineffable law that rips us apart
Ties us together on some other plane than
The physical than this so called reality
In a world cursed with just three dimensions

So there is no you and me but perhaps, just perhaps
Somewhere in the distant M verse there is a fountain
Where you hold me and we swim together in infinity
That is forever where time no longer exists only
Me and you and the not yesterdays that weren’t
Ever there.
