This is my Valentine post for all the lovers, newly weds and broken hearted. I am not much of a love, red roses guy. I am too warped to give you the kind of romance you desire but I can leave you with a broken hearted song.

LEAVING OF YOU
In my heart there’s nothing left
But the leaving of your ashes, the waters
Of your ending dew, hanging like pearls amidst my lids.
In my hands are forgotten stories Mother told;
Woman and man, love, death and broken hearts.
I have counted the tales and thought them complete
Until you came and rethought my heart to know pain.
It was nothing at first; the steady flaying of my skin
Over the fires of your touch;
The smouldering guilt of your eyes
As you drank all that was me
Into the unyielding depths of your fevered heat
But I was a fool like every man before me.
I thought to tame the world like a soccer ball.
I caught the sun
And thought it a candle flame.
I dared to stir the tides
Of the moon and thought me a pirate captain
Hugging plundered coasts;
I was a fool.
The ashes of your leaving flutter in the wind;
Moths dance, stirred by flickering candle light;
Wings whispering
Of what could have been,
Of mysteries that you wrote on my skin once
When your eyes sought mine between each lie and
I refused you the waters of my heart
And let the walls sunder;
Let the bridge crumble into the unending abyss.
I was a fool.
Peace
