Nuts and Bolts

Ha ha eyes heavy… Body elated.
The sound of something this simple could make a soul float right through the skin which holds it captive.
Never meant to cry… But the liquid running down ones face is a welcomed surprise.
Cool tears and warm flesh, and that something…
Nuts and bolts are falling out your mouth
Focus for God’s sake…. It is pretty late.
And you think that it is going to be alright.
They, she and you… shit and fear pouring from the seams.
Only the silliest geese can calm this fear.

Never being able to say things as they’re meant…
Words swimming through the mouth and cascading to the floor.
It all washes out as you block them with a door.

Trust, I could hear you clearly… but all your words were empty
