Futures past

On these frigid December days,

My mind drifts far away,

The sky is no longer blue,

This is why I think of you,

My heart will skip a beat,

Then lull itself to sleep,

Cringing painfully,

When I think of the past,

Our time together may have been blessed,

What I feel now is just a mess,

regret,

disrepair,

NOW IM COLD!

I can't have your touch anymore,

these days,

I can feel the brittleness of my bones,

Just a lost soul,

I can't even cry anymore,

The things I've done seem to push out everyone,

Or maybe I've turned to stone,

If today's yesterdays tomorrow,

Yesterdays today's in sorrow,

as I lose track of time,

I wish the past,

would not have such a backlash,

and why is my brain as fragile as twine?

Gordon!  Love this write.  Very emotionally stimulating with excellent imagery as you tell the story of a journey through time and it's treachery. Yes, the lost of passion and all the things that keep you physically and mentally warm is an tragedy that is hard to bear.  Excellent!

He learned how to use a semicolon,
With the clumsy hands of a hopeless romantic,

If the black could be...

If the black could be forgotten

Night the blight of yesterday,

Finger tips grow numb upon the dimming of lights,
