Cabello

She sorts me in parts
From one side to other.
I am symmetrical and asymmetrical.

I am closest to her brain
I swing around her freely.

I take a leap and kiss her cheeks
She tucks me back behind her ears
Adamantly, i repeat. She repeats.

I am tired
I rest on her shoulders.

I get confused and ill
She untangles me with her Clarity
She cleans me with her Sincerity.

I am hers.
I run down her neck and beyond.

Mr Artist

I arrange the strings
Of my favourite instrument
The head, For perfect music
Of art and evolution

I play the flute
with perfect synchronization
Of togetherness with art
Of wilderness with evolution

I am a pianist now
Drawn deeper into the music
with each stroke of touch
Of pain and love

My music her poetry
she reads me
from top to bottom
I draw her closer.

She whispers,"Mr. Artist, 
You play the hormones
better than
your instrument".

I Was There

i was there 
                                                   silent and faceless

                                                       i was there
                                                   calm and motionless

                                            impossible for the eyes to behold
                                           difficult for the senses to get hold

                                              now i move, an escape perhaps
                                              so slow yet the senses grasp

                                         the blinded  eye beheld,fear and despair
                                         i move again, against the eyes that scare

                                         tethered to the sight of a sight so rare
                                          i was there i am there i will be there

Demons

There have been times
Terrible, tricky, tiring times
Of moments, I have been victim
For I did not know

I have been rude
I have been arrogant
I have been angry
I have ignored
I have conspired
I have lied
I have cheated
All this in Complete knowledge
For at those moments, it seemed 
as if it was to Protect
Protect some part of me
Both abstract and physical
I have protected well, well
Enough. For I did not know.

All these years, And now I sit
Perhaps at the same place
I was when I first fought
Fought to protect. In front
Of me, A mirror. to this Mirror
I ask, "what did u protect?"
There is silence.
