This one

This one is just for you - my friend.

You are all that there is to me and yet I am loosing you - fearing loosing you.

You say that you don't know now; that you have not known for some time, but you don't know how long.

Well, you say, from that time when you think that I did something so wrong and, unlike you, I know that I did not but I do know that you may never even try to believe that.

I think you have a coldness - I don't think its yours, you were given it and you still have a hold of it when you could have let it go, put it down, kindly said "thanks, but no".

You have, for me, lost your fire and I should, should... should such a word... leave you be really. Cut my losses and walk away as I have before. Cut the albatross from around my neck, killed the fucking goose of endless unrequited promise.

This though, I'm not prepared to do - my loss is too great. It not just you that I loose but my boys, my time and so much more.

Things and people - those attachments - my codependent time-travelers. I should know better, know that they only .... no, not "they". I only let them cause me pain.

What I feel is what I do. And, of course I have choice, the choice to cut the rope and drop into eternity, endless falling or to continue to hang here constricted, choking and die.

Light passes from spark to eye.

Spoken words and written words. Voices from different selfs. Not all of my selfs. I'm not sure there is a self. Just those that want to speak outside of my head.  Communication, the process by which thought passes from mind to mind as does light from spark to eye.

Linking us: are we even there? here?

When I shut my eyes I am not sure if I am here or even there. 

In comes that tram - again. It carries with it memories from then to now.

Communication through time.

Linking us: are we even then? now?

Nothing, as so often seems to be the case, is certain.

Motion, such an odd concept when all is moving - ultra-normal. Only stopping is of note. From me to you - in mysterious ways.

The Floor

The floor is not there but we are not falling and neither are we still. 
All is moving; change.
Watch the lights and listen to the bells and this, for us, will end.

And the pebbles on the beach are turning to sand. I watch them and know this. If all were made of stone suggested Jack - all things I asked - the air, the sea, all things.

A fine stream falls - time marked out but there is no need to turn the timer. The sand moves both ways - all ways, time does not move from place to place. Place moves - time stands still and we move past in flashes of momentary lights and bells.

Choice, brings the fear of death. With all that we accept we say no to all other possibilities and they are dead to us. Our past, a place stopped but still moving.

Nothing makes sense, it always has but I didn't know it. Only nothing can make sense.
