Heartstrings


 Heart strings

Johnclarestokes 


Tangling the strings dangling about

thinking long severed the binding

only to find in the sight of shell shards

the salty sea breeze in twisted hair

pulling me into high tides receding 

all but drowning us clinging 

then in the tug of one same thought

lost forever never able to express

the reasons for the composition 

tripping over the green thin string

in the tall wild grass lying in

wait to tell of things that seemed

only tiny written in locked dairies 

with the especially deepest love

marked about with the dried out

purple phlox pressed just so

no thick painter ropes mind you

Delicate orb spider like silk thin

Impossible to unbind 

The entwine of time fastened 

completely.
