A sadness my father possessed,
In the bone, there is regret,
In the blood, a home, tears forget,
Within the lasting memory, the sadness
The love unrequited, a child torn in two,
The silent fool twiddles his thumbs,
Eyes averted, unable to speak, mute,
He hums to himself, singing an unknown song,
Even to himself, acceptance, reality, melancholy,
Searching within, dissipation, diminishing horizons,
The subtle dreamer stares into galaxies,
Black holes, nebulas forming the image of an eye,
The shorting of time, the passing of moments,
Expanding while retracting, growing while diminishing,
A mother who never loved properly,
A Mother who does, visions and fantasies,
The suffering child casts shadows upon himself,
Crevices, cracks, sets of observations,
Broken and bent, unconscious and subconscious,
Insanely powerful, emerging problems,
Stripping the subjectivity of the world, demented,
Apparitions and sacrifice, growth with no connection,
Infusion, maturity slow forming, allowance,
The multitude of memories coalesce into love.
