psalm unspoken
i wanna be
weightless
faceless
uncatagorically
shapeless
unfazeably
shameless
and unnameably
famous
unwaveringly
patient
yet bravely
in your faces
like brazen but not brash
a graze but not a rash
i’ll cut you when i lash
but flutter my eyelashes
gently on your cheek
til you fall softly to sleep
i’m here
but then i’m gone
melody
but no song
you’ll hum me in your head
but never take me to bed
you’ll smile when you see me
but never stop to speak
you’ll recognise my scent
just fleeting then it went
and then i’m gone again
and you will never know
not for sure at least
if i was here at all
shadows flickering
up a tall brick wall
maybe i exist
maybe you’re the fool
but then i’m gone again
just a melody
broken bars of hymn
psalms you’ll never speak
because i’m gone again
maybe i never was
you keep on questioning
and baby so do i
baby, so do i.
