Poem



If my eyes were stars
They would write songs for your dreams

 Kisses for your lips and my touch on your skin
Send chills into your body and etch madness into your head

They’d write lightning into your castle
 Where people are joined in endless loops
With their fingers intertwined one within the other
So if we move closer the entire loop in your castle changes with us
 We stand still
Our fingers still intertwined
But we dance as people keep changing
I wish we could untangle ourselves
Enjoin our fingers
Cut the loop
And be free
 You had so much faith
To break that circle



And you’d thought we would be free
But instead I cut my fingers off from yours
And held on closely to my tangled mess
With bleeding hands


Who pulled me away from your castle?
Because,
Now I’m alone in this crowded loop
And  Why did you trust me?
 did you not realize,

 My eyes were never stars
 I was only singing lies to your dreams….
