Breathing Dust

So tired of love,

Tears into dust


To only be breathed in again

And long stretches of meadows to have no ends,


For oceans to crash, wave after wave

To resurface the messages in the bottles that decayed,


To bring to life ink that settled and will soon fade,

To bring thrill back into past time's escapade-


There is no purpose in bringing back what has made its departure.

Why don't you face it, troubled heart? It's over and yet too far...


Move on, childish heart,

Pick yourself up, you still have a road to travel; leave this baggage at the stop where it's dark.
