Confusion
I romanticize the experience
I dawn the rise of melting snow.
The higher I rise, the slower I go.
However, I am from below.
I am not like you, beings of dawn.
You dance before the Morning Star.
I am a marionette for reasons I don't know.
I am the basin in which no thought goes.
I am the pursuer of dreams I cannot remember.
I believe exactly what I cannot picture.
You are my dream, in a daze, my haze.
I worship the imagination.
On your whisper I graze.

What would you sound like?
What do you desire?
There is nothing left.
I have nothing, set asunder.
What kind of day makes you shine like the morning?
What pursues you, that you chase the stars of night?
Who am I, that everyone knows your dreams, even if they do not want to?
Except Me?
You know all my dreaming, my scheming, to know a love for longing.
You know the laughter I never hold.
I do not know what I pursue.
Yet I do not know myself.
If you turned me away because I am too open,
Then I will leave you alone because that is what you desire.
I asked you, and I was given no answer,
except that no one told me, and mislead me, and isolated me without anything.
From the Time of my childhood, until now.
If I am my only companion, and I do not know myself-
I cannot call myself alone.
Only Dreaming.
I am the guardian of lost dreams.
I am the Bearer. the Taker. the Wrong-Maker.
I am the one who falls in love with everyone.
I am the love that no one wanted.
Yet everyone desired.
Except You.

"I think it is one of the longer poems I have read in awhile. The baring of your innermost thoughts is impressive to me. Still, I think there are at least a couple of poems in this. If you are not willing separate it out…" - July 2021
