She's in my mind

By beamish

She's inside me,  my brain 
     My being

I live for those moments of pure incoherent clarity
When she speaks to me in colors 

Colors I can't understand 
But I am her man

Although we've never meant
She takes me 

Places I've dreamed of as a boy
Places I've drawn pictures of on my way to the gallows

Where I'll hang alone for my 
sins 
and redemption

Along in body, but she will be kissing my mind 

As we travel the hi-ways of euphoria's fast lane

No brakes in sight - just more gas and go fast

She will guide me to my place in heaven or lost space 

But
I've never meant this angel of mine-vision of lust

Maybe  I'll find

 her

After my death and escape from this body of waste and lost imagination

    Liked the titular wordplay B and sounds like an excellent childhood friend (we could do worse). Nicely done characterization of an ideal that might forever remain elusive - safer that way. Cheers! - Dan

    Yes you are right. Sometimes safer. Thanks for reading and comment

    Not sure we ever really lose someone in death. We just find them elsewhere. Thank you. You might like my writing the witches
