Flares into oblivion
Prayers on the lips of children
Who sees or hears? No one
But, then again, I must admit:
When I’m utterly desperate, I talk to No One.
Gossamer morning pours,
Swift, through the corridors
And over your features: you’re still
Blissfully at rest
Mysteriously blest by No One.
But I’ve seen your eyes grow tear-flecked,
Trying to decathect from me
When I’ve made you so terribly, terribly lonely
Fragmented, dissolute
Brutes, red in claw and tooth:
They’re ruthless, they’re barely human, they’re
Staring hungrily
At you: you’ll turn for me and find no one
But I’ve seen your eyes grow tear-flecked,
Trying to decathect from me
When I’ve made you so terribly, terribly lonely
Terribly, terribly lonely
And I’ve heard the words on your tongue
Each stammered incantation
Ascend into oblivion
But, Darling, know this:
If no one else is listening I am
Darling, know this:
If no one else is listening I am
