Roots

Weakness has set in,
I feel it in my bones.
What does one do
When roots are unearthed?
Forced tears,
Have I forgotten how?
The lioness shakes her mane,
In efforts to discover
The emerald rawness.
Each tear drop
Caressed with hope the truth will unveil.
Is this wonderland?
How do the clouds know?
He loves her.
But she is blind.
Blind to painful loyalty.
Blind to all of the colors.
Blind to blindness.
Solely red penetrates
Wounded spirits,
Only the look within is left.
Is there depth still to go?
I pray for an eclipse.
Will they ever understand the overlap?
The embers dimmed,
And she did not care.
Flourished with fire-filled geminis,
All was forgotten.
I hate her for that.
Eternal devotion,
Hearts of everlasting,
Overwhelming honor,
Never ignorant respect.
I scarcely reveal this,
Which molds the perfect blade.
A black widow without the means,
The pain is deep.
Easily seen to all but powerful crumbs.
He wants to be your glue.
You must know this by now.
I can’t see through all the smoke.
I guess, its time for that icy staple again.
Another turn, another turn, another time.
It’s not just you,
I thought you knew this the most.
False denial births unwelcomed volumes of blame.
Hawks in the sky, the vultures are next.
Unknown counts of turmoil,
So much has taken you.
But I believe you to be whole.
Borrow my eyes, please momma,
Take them for keeps, take everything.
None was ever mine anyways.
Are the hills going to turn early this year?
Have the rivers dried up?
Worry not,
For the charcoal clouds are beginning their gallop.
Grey cheetah on the pavement,
Thirst will be quenched soon.
I am forever yours; you feel it in your toes.
Time will bring warmth, it always does.
Just give in.
Let go of you reins.
Free fall into the plush heights of enlightenment.
Smiles are awaiting
Sealed with kisses and wisdom.
You are almost there.
The both of you are.
The preparation was always in the oven,
Sizzling burning threats looming.
Just feel the piano,
And sing until the glow overwhelms.
The fog is receding,
It isn’t long now.
Its time to hit the snooze,
And surrender to the moment.
Faith has returned,
And fear has ceased.
You never fail me.
Love has done it again.
