This. Is. It. These quiet roads deafen me As the realisation hits home Nine Hundred and Ninety-Nine Degrees Inside of me, Igniting me Yet somehow these empty skies Have left me feeling so. Full. Up My hearts churning, Fire’s burning He’s crying now, as he turns around Round and Round and through reaching out He can’t seem to make one single sound Or even conjure up the strength to make a noise That’s loud enough He’s screaming now, his voice is drowned, drowning As he surmounts, leaps and pounces With every ounce to catch the attention Of the only one he’s been striving for. There is No. Escaping. This. I hear it. Loud and Clear. I can hear His mighty calls. Locked eyes on you And now, he ROARS With Lion Claws, he fights the fools Removes the drool, fired by fools With pea sized balls – who tried to fool Who gave their all to fool, me. My God. I can hear it. I can’t help but feel it. Burning. It burns. He fires through Each tiny hoop, he skips and shoots He glides right through my veins Through every single artery. Striving through each life line Guided by you, who now lives inside of me. My blood full flow, You and I Full Flow We flow together – perfectly We haze the view, you are quite simply Gushing through every part of me and Despite it all, and yes – you have seen it all I never stopped I have never stopped feeling. Not for you Not for one second. My hearts frustrated. You’re frustrated. I know, Me too. He’s shouting out, he shouts so loud Deafening me. He yells ‘SIT DOWN’ ‘SORT IT OUT’ ‘KAZ. STOP! PLEASE. JUST. STOP’ ‘STOP PUNISHING ME!’ Whilst inadvertently punishing you It was never meant to be this way you know, You and me, me and you – we are a ‘we’ We need to work as a team. It’s these heart beats you’ve provided which carry me They carry me through, I can’t bare the thought, the cold harsh truth The reality being that I’ve neglected you. It’s true. It’s my worst mistake and I would NEVER have done that intentionally. Not knowingly. I guess this time, it is my time to admit
