time passes me by

An unrequited soul ,
Dimensions and planes ,
Here I reside ,
Beside me rains ,
Ticks of clock ,
Time rages by ,
They try to catch moments,
These palms of mine .

Wasps and intrusions ,
Can't quite grasp ,
These seconds seem to jump ,
I'm far behind ,
Throat clogs and chokes ,
Unridden tears,
It flows as if sand ,
This time of mine .

Passion of pain ,
Will it ever halt,
Slender hands ,
Markings on quartz,
A breath before,
Was the dusk of June,
I open my eyes,
It's the dawn of November.

I sit in castle,
A house of cards ,
The breeze knocks it out ,
Gasps break out ,
Amber sun shines ,
My sanity rakes ,
I try to build the house ,
I didn't break .

My world hides ,
Behind veils and masks,
Fingers uncover each ,
Holds a bloody heart,
Painted walls etched ,
Rested desire,
A burnt , burnt child ,
Craves fire .

Coal eyes shine ,
There's cloud over the stars,
Skin shines silver ,
Old wars
Time heals ,
Time scars .

Time passes me by.
