Waitlessly wondering

Wait-less and wondering
just this ringing
in my ears
Past tense unfolding
you from my hands

I’ve wandered why
did thought hold onto
Temptation and tempers
and tastes left lingering
at the moon rise

Fingers pointing
words remaining
Shadows in silver light
Send shivers up
my spine

Awaking still quaking
within a dream
Left lying
at the gates of hell
Wishing me well

Telling stories of
sometime lost longing
In the heart
of a child lingering
where he cried

As a mothers love
told the stories
Held the hand
of the man he would be
coming

 

unwound

time is a fault
as space
and distance
from home
from love

who declared
its reason
for being
and who
turned back
the clock

where you were born
matters in kind
and in if you mind
there will
come a time

someone decides
in passing (time)
the past once was
the future will be
and now
just now
I am
forever …
