Broken Fences

My senses are over run You’ve distorted every one Now my emotions sit on fences Unsure how to fend offences How my eyes tend to deceive Peripheral sightings I believe You are the corners of my vision The cause of my internal division Your taste is everlasting My reason for desperate fasting A scent that hits me like a train Still, I can’t help but inhale again I hear your laugh in other rooms And when my still heartbeat resumes I find them empty in the dark Wanting your light, just a spark You always seem just out of reach I don’t dare of hope to breach I know you’re not at my fingertips I swear they feel your fading lips My senses are forever yours Gone with why’s and wherefores Stripped down to my defenses Fallen off of broken fences
