Description Once again
I find myself on my knees
Order clutched in my right hand
Left hand open
awaiting something to grasp
A lash
inflicting discipline where everything else has failed
Too much to atone for
but salvation has never been my goal

One failure too many
and I find myself here again
My knees touching stone
palm touching lips
fingers touching flesh
heart touched by naught

And fled, is the sense of self
Fled, to where only words can lure it back
But I can’t find my past in these
new eyes of mine
And no images of the future will
shine through the rime
But there is no need
apart from the need to feel

Ah, these tunes that hold
all the sorrow I can’t let go of
Hearing them played again brings
something back from memories of old
memories so cold
But the determination still won’t go

(Maybe a beginning this time?)
