TIME WAS NEVER OURS

we never had a hold of time

for it went as it came,

with it's waves carrying us

fleetingly

yet slowly-

we won't ever get it back

                                (and we wouldn't want to)

now tell me

if there is any value to this ink,

to the stanzas i crafted

to conceal

what i hadn't revealed.

I care not for time,

only these screams.

with tears in your eyes, and knots in your  stomach

unaware of this part of yourself,

you never knew existed

untill, it looked you in the eyes

and shook your essence.

with a stained glass of wine in your right,

your heart still beats songs in hopes, they are listening

this silence is deep enough to drown you

and you sink

deeper 

like a precious ship underwater

your treasures unravel

you say you have always been a sunken ship,

(oblivious of the treasures buried within you.)

untill these pages showed you - "Look inside, the answer is there"
