Harbor me in silence Let me inside your warmth Watch the sky with me For shooting stars To fill our pockets with dreams Having nothing is everything Free to be the way we are Meaningless entanglements Stripped away like cobwebs Reveal flesh and bone as once we were Vital breath quickens To feel each stroke of the clock Take something away As we grasp each waking hour Something desperate grows In the back of the mind Meeting mortality head on In dark alleys of the night I seek and find the door
Harbor me in silence Let me inside your warmth

Delicate and rich as well as raw and sad. I don't know which is worse - the sensitivity to the loss of things or the loss itself. Perhaps the sensitivity to things slipping away is why we load ourselves up with all the other stuff, as some kind of compensation, when what we really want is the womb-like security and bliss felt with another. A fine poem.
