Favorite Quote:
Which winds to silence and a space for sleep<br /> <br /> Too sound for waking and for dreams too deep. <br /> <br /> -Charlotte Mew


Constantly confound me, you trapped me.

Stuck for now, left for later.

Constantly confounding me, you left me.

There was no later only now, and now I want to leave.

 

Constantly confounded why do I let you past me.

There is no past only the now, only with you.

Constantly confined by your walls, inching closer but I still try to embrace you.

There is no you, only confinement.

 

Constantly you but sometimes the villain.

There is no sometimes, only always, only ever with you.

Who is the villain but confined to me.

It is me.

I am the villain, not you but me.

Who am I but not I who I wish I to be.

Who am I but not me, never me.

Only you confined to you.

I guess this is a piece from one side of my talking about the other.
