Away

Every sound Every breath Every flicker Every flutter Every tear to come I could unravel for you Not one step Or ache Or choice Or fear Or desire I wouldn’t unravel for you The shade of your eyes, the crease of your skin as you talk yourself out of what I am talking you into is not going to work, is not going to happen, you look, you are, you have become But you choose your own boat And I watch you offshore Away From it all All Away November 4, 2019 Icarus Falling Edward Ibeh
