"Testing"


Chapter 1
Boundaries

By victortouche

Boundaries are
meant to be,
I guess.
 
Why is that 
a strict neccessity?
 
The time is spent
and of such relent.
 
To keep in place
what we can't see,
only kind of feel...
as if they're really, 
really real.
 
Of course they are.
 
Our selves invent
what we can't say.
 
Never mind
they're in our way.
 
So much time,
and so much pain.
The loss of love,
my old refrain.
 
I think if it
were up to me...
 
I'd never stop
to reinforce
what must be left
behind, of course.
 
As I raise my eyes
with slight remorse,
 
I recognize
a kite.
Its plight
and...mine.
 
 

Author Notes Will we ever learn
that we create
our own prisons?


Chapter 2
End...less Joy

By victortouche

Baby,
I don't think,
I can...
understand.
 
Why,
oh why,
we can't bend.
 
You keep tellin' me,
with no bend,
comes an end...less
chasm.
 
A bridgeless,
emotionless,
hopeless,
anchorless us.
 
One last summer.
A retreat.
Long, warm, sunny,
end...less maze.
 
I don't think
we ever thought
those days would
end...less be.
 
Is pride still
a problem o' mine?
Don't even polish it
much anymore.
 
Do I seem stiff?
To you?
Add a bit
to your decision.
 
Lack of flex,
a prolonged physicality
cannot emote
a beautiful simplicity?
 
Emotionless, eh?
I was raised
to hold emotions
at bay.
 
Feelin' again?
Yeah.
I feel like...
dancin'.
 
Again.
Just can't
feel
no grin.
 
Not been
with a smile.
My style.
 
But,
still tryin'
that last mile.
 
Just
a walk,
with
a woman...
 
I love.
 
 

Author Notes My my.
I'm just a man.
With hopes, emotions, dreams,
and foolishness.

Just like everybody else.
