Clicked on the news cause I wanted to say

I SAW YOU LOOKING AT ME

The screech of door
Rush of men and women
Languorous over gin and tonic
Stepping down the ladder
Unannoyed at sharpened blade
Of turmoils of yester and morrows .

Dispassinonate I sun
My numb heart
Then I saw you looking at me
In the murmur of monsoon rain
With eyes sappaire crystals ....

I 
see you
coming down the
stairs walking holding the
banister ever so carefully still
dizzy yet head still swimming such
..........I need the aid of someone too! 
.......................to catch and or hold me so I,
don't want to fall walking, stepping down these stairs

I remember the night 
that we first met. 
It was dark and cold; 
windy and wet. 

Had my collar clenched up- 
tight 'round my neck. 
It was late in the winter 
and colder than heck 

I was stepping down the street, 
moving fast, fast , fast. 
Shivering like a leaf, 
and you walked past 

I swiveled my head; 
for a quick glance at your butt
And unbottoned 
three buttons on my coat....

A primordial fear takes over.
These pathways are not reaching anywhere.
I am leaving blank papers
for you.

This was dark matter,

A fireball sails through you
reaching for the shadow of the soul.

The seawall collides with hurricane
shattering the window panes,
of temporal lobes.
And I am the salt,
I am the eye.

The sky is stepping down from heaven
which never was.
Man was the destroyer
man was god.

Soak into your senses 
Stop stepping down your standards for someone's satisfaction
Your skeptical because selflessness sent you staggering 
Stumbling and succumbing to something you are not
Something stagnantly synthetic
Submerged under the surface
Something inside you sees the shackles separating you from sustainment
Trying to salvage the shortcomings and sever the shady feelings of the struggle
Be satisfied to step up and stand out
You are sterling in singularity...
