Distant

....the distance... it was so... colossal!
Cold. Black. Empty. Fear.

A grain of sand... and a mountain range.
Sitting side by side.

A shot glass.  Catching every single drop of rain in a thunderstorm.

Take a measure of your own madness before and after having witnessed the well of infinity, -FROM WHICH!- the usual promise of the returning sound of a dropped coin or stone...
Is swallowed whole.

Stare helplessly into it and I promise that your eyes will remain suspended where they are for all eternity.
Your blinded body will be free to run and jump and climb and die with that lucid memory.

My Favourite Eyes

I wish I could look directly into my favourite eyes,
but they're so beautiful I can barely stand.

The wrong was terrible,
yet you've generously given me the gift of pain.

I then carried the stone of regret for the longest of days and nights,
until I finally heard your call.

And despite the troubles,
you invited me back into your home.

Thank you, my love.
