trapped in text



i've trapped myself in words
shut away
from the sun that you've been
faded warmth
does more to drive me mad
than the silence
my lungs filled with a lifetime
of the joy i would give to you
constrict
collapse
and i will not miss my breath
if your name doesn't decorate it
i've trapped myself in words
waiting for the moment
to break free in your embrace
i follow the flight of birds
and dream of the day
when we shall soar in each other's spirit
like they do.
