The one Thing...
By Ocean of Truth
Single
Solitary
Like a man in the desert with no shadow
I
have waited for so long in this dust
Waiting for nothing but my confinement
And this isolation is driving me crazy
Crazed visions and
paranoia clot my brain
And I feel an aneurysm coming on
And
my vision turns red daily
(This heat is overwhelming)
I nail
myself to this wall
Without even thinking about it
And
as the paddles hit my chest
I feel myself return to my body
And
happiness fills me
(Anxiety and Idiocy were just symptoms)
Through the cloud of confusion
I feel your chilled fingertips
enclose me
My soul, pulses in your tender grip
(And I withdraw
no longer)
Safety in your arms
Love in your eyes
But no matter what you give me
I'll always need just one thing
You...

resuscitation.... how love ebbs and flows.... very touching with uniquely arranged imagery.. a rebirth of commitment in the eyes and soul of the beloved... well wrought work, and a voyage that inspires; thank you.
