Not a Sonnet
Eastward of me, my heart slumbers
In a bed of her own, while I shadowed
With loneliness, lay in my aloe
Bed. Close my eyes to hear her
Release and intake time borrowed
Mortal worlds fall away hallowed
Without her.
How am I not in your company-
Within reach of your existence?
With my concise persistence;
How are you not here with me?
Inhibition upon this expedition
The fires of the end wouldn’t stop the distance
So my heart slumbers next to me
In a bed of her own, while I shadowed
With loneliness, lay in my aloe
Bed. Close my eyes to hear her
Release and intake time borrowed
Mortal worlds fall away hallowed
Without her.
How am I not in your company-
Within reach of your existence?
With my concise persistence;
How are you not here with me?
Inhibition upon this expedition
The fires of the end wouldn’t stop the distance
So my heart slumbers next to me
