Hope There's Someone

a subtle ou.t-take of breath
staining my pillow in white aether...
where I wish I could whisper in your ear
and bleed my desire in delicate sparrows
to tickle your heartstrings and stain your sleeves...
I'm a lovesick ca;tast~rophe...
god, I hope there's someone
whispering silent sonatas
hopeless, romantic as I...
to set my heart free...

love the opening line reiterative sound....as if gasping for that very breath. ..and in particular "desire in delicate sparrows"....original and fragile indeed. .. this feels so forlorn, and far far away. . .. with jsut the horizon of hope on which to cling. ..beautifully wrought. nessa

The last four lines are particularly striking, particularly evocative. As gorgeous as running your hand along silk. Silent sonata's, truly you must already have such in abundance all around you.
