Off-Limits

Off-Limits

Eyes transmit.
Messages.
Hidden words and
Sentences.

Yearning, the bubbles bursting and I`m running out of
Preferences

Indecisive passion, peacekeeping and phrasing.
Inconclusive chasing
Myself through the dark.

Picking apart…
Because oblivion is never very far.
Away.
Keep safe.

Through the night works and I`m alone
Iced roads  
The Traffic cones.

What am I?
Supposed to do?

Though daylight and the limelight
Target me
Like an Iron sight

What am I?
Supposed to do?

Useless. Useful.
Needed reaction.
Cause and effect
Addicted?
Satisfaction.

Needless or Nothing.
Off-limits.
Out of time.

Of beat.
No streak
No sanctuary.
A lie.

A simple lie.

That changes everything.

Glad you enjoyed it, Liliana! To be honest, I had a moment in this one, saying to myself "What would Liliana do?..." Thanks so much for your feedback

Wow thanks so much, P! Every time you comment on my work means so much to me ;). sometimes I write as if I am talking to myself and it can be noncoherent but the emotions still shine through. Glad you liked my style and once again thank you for your ongoing support. You rock!
