Where did you go?

(Written for the POETIC WORD PUZZLE competition)  
 
Where have you gone?
in this centipede light  
lost in the jaded peppermint wind  
like a dislodged barnacle floating aimlessly
though the rocky ocean  
 
My icicle heart bleeds pure wine  
and sixteen identical tears  
for the years we lived  
in swirling sacrilegious ice covered sin  
juxtaposed against our unborn purity of spirit  
 
Where have you gone?
as the bookworms keep chewing  
through our flawed dream philosophies  
were we ever really here at all  
the silence is too total without you here  
to cut through the rainbow and shower us  
with the prism hope of white light
 
Where have you gone?
