a subtle
symphony
of discordant
supplication
a diaphonous
susurrous
of sullen
surrender
serenaded
in the
pleading
beat of
cardiac
palpations
guiding the
starlight
in shimmering
waves of
trepidation
to wash away
the clamoring
sway of
sweet dreams
with the
frantically
swishing
staccato of
sorrowful
soulshatter
suturing
trembling lips
to cease the
flow of
insipid sighs

i lay with
a film of
i love yous
coating my
tongue trying
to find a few
minutes of
needed sleep
but the room
is saturated
with the words
left unspoken
a shaking
somnambulist
spinning a
sheet coccoon
slowly sundering
self assurance
and sickly
subsisting on
the splintered
serendipity of
an obsolescent
sense of succor
in the cacophonous
susurrous syncopation
of a silenced heart
