Author's Note:This was just something I thought up one night after reading the fabulous works of Kasia over at Almeida Is God. She is a true poet, and I am such a fan of her incredible Jack/Nina poetry. :) So I guess you could consider this a homage of sorts to her wonderful works. Go check them out!


The air is

heavy

with thoughts of our all

too truthful lies.

At the end

of the day

hundreds of shattered clocks

are my only

consolation prize.

Not again.

In these final

moments

your endless eyes

speak the truth

which I have always known.

You are constantly

in front of

behind

within me and

I don't know

any other way to be.

Your voice

shares a

bed

with mine.

That won't change.

Your soprano tears

serenade

my baritone

shudders.

A chorus of agony.

Love has never been enough.

I end it.

As the music

dies

I am left with

searing

screaming

silence.

The only

forever

we will ever get.
