Fleeting

. .. ... .... limitless love endless hate well conceived thoughts words to my ears words to my mind berate my heart my brain limitless? without limits limited infinite immeasurable deluded impossibilities you have my body you have my hours you give me frowns amid fragrant flowers wilting wilted wilt want more more more pressure make demands I give less try to find time to know what I'm feeling the shadows from my walls stretched so long send my mind reeling so high so wide so deep buried bottled bottled up myself so distant are my desires elusive like sands through your fingers or water in the cup of your hands my self myself so impalpable scared to dissect afraid of what I'll find shaken by the secrets closed off in my mind compartments for safety locked doors without handles never knowing myself a mystery unsolved hear no evil see no evil does not make one absolved finding excuses I'm tired I'm wired it's too late I'm too old endless? without end ended .... ... .. .
