Wavering

The rhetoric of the testimony of the broken

Before you lock my love away

Sang right into the "You've never known my name"

Personalities deranged... no psychotherapy 

The oceans spread transitioned the tides down my cheeks


You've never known my name unable to hear the tones of my hearts testimony

The claim rang down as I locked the remnants of my heart away    


Hovering branches covering the stained pillow lids

Cheeks shaped like the beautiful hills of African lands

The droplets swam down the hills to the curves of the lips of this goddess

Flood warnings blared through airwaves

Intermittent showers are anticipated


Nights like this I lose count of the growing decimals

Eternities of pain moving swiftly along its river of excrutiating watercourse

Thinking about it too much too much too much


Mental chains

Awaiting the signs of the freedom in self

To be free from oneself

To be free from you
