i invite you to take me higher,
to wallow in the greatest of depths
with me, to defy any and all
known measures of time and dimensions

of infiniteness, but what do they
mean without your color, without
your trace, my thoughts falter
to define the loss and the space

and now could only design
a vague sense of neglect ~
of the words i could have uttered

but chose not to, of blood that
lets your affiction cut too deep,
denying me of my peace.
