Lost Words to a Lost Love


When he comes in I pause the day
Nothing could tear me away
Miles divide our space
Still he's my favorite piece of plastic held to my ear
Come and take me away
Be my lover
Forget the drama of this ordinary world
Escape with me into this phantasm
I turn off the rest of the day
Letting it flicker in the background
Everything is more than it seems
Naked and exposed
I let him see all that I veil
So powerless
the magnitude of his phonation humbles me
Blast out all of the obscene, all disbelief
I can't help but stare
Lose myself in the comforting darkness of his eyes
Blurred, still so certain
Elation consumes me completely
Feeling all of you outside me, inside me, forevermore
