A Certain Romance

I crawled back into the position of a fetus

With eyes glued shut as i remembered the days spent floating in wombs

Snivelling in hopes that all else would dissolve and wash away

In the actual patter of what's left of the dusk's tears

In the actual matter of what's left of all my fears

You back there persistently asked for the time,

As if you saw him came in and swoop our precious hours

Well, he needs to know that panic in me was the filter of a zombie movie, and all else was melting

All i knew was how time said that this was a search for greater beings and also hippies

All i knew was how all else was real, and if lucidity was our God, emotions are our deities

Would you please stop biting my head? I'm already as black and blue as the night herself

How many times do i have to tell you that you're not a puppy anymore?

You almost jumped from the balcony, I couldn't tell the difference between condiments & ichor

I pulled myself together but you were about to pull the fridge up to the second floor,

And for over too many onomatopoeias, you ran yourself against everything else and the door.

Who else should i balderdash for sanity? What more gobbledygook can my muzzle utter?

That the square in our mouth unleashed the Tartarus caged in you? That you are now merely the naked puppet of your actual deep slumber?

That you pranced on all loved ceramics, books, and dairy products whilst holding Nataraja in your hands?

That love was unlike other drugs? Despite it all, i lull you in words that will never ever come close to goodbye.

That love is quite like every other drug there is? making you wish for a restart towards your
checkpoint in every blink of an eye.

And by the standing of the ticking clock, time surged to slap you into coherence

The dominos fall along, as all the balderdash falter, yet all the rubbish wasn't in its place

Our love meant differently whilst under intoxication, but our chemistry remains

You were making grass angels within, while i was grasping a rain check waiting for the angels to actually come by

As deep within the chaos of my heart you found your serendipity in all your favourite ties.
