KNOWING HEART

I knew

I know

I have moved

My heart sleeps alone

I am now not the same

Violent violin

As I long

For the belonging

As my heart wants mending

Darkness throws wild threads

Around the edge of my dreams

The hurt doesn’t believe anymore

As today is confused

By yesterdays light

Comforting tomorrows fear

Surrendering to the dread

That makes the soul bleed

Breaking the dream of flying

I walk

Dragged down by the heavy step

The path hiding the glory

Shadows glide from the falling sun

Playing tug of war with the measurable beat

Drowning the thumping heart

As the sound won’t change

Feeling its deepest tunes

Empty words you have given me

Washing me with a wave of confusion

Lingering in my standing presence

Your free soul burns

And I continue to crave your warmth

But my chance has fallen away

As the truth hides behind the beat

The habit clutched in the hearts

Waiting for to me be fixed

The man with the red suede boots

Observes with his fountain pen

And crumpled paper

He lies about the heroes

That still cry

I knew

I know
