“The Price Of Admission”

HomePoetry"The Price Of Admission"
Summary:
I don't do challenges - but not because I can't. I found they were so limiting to thought and creativity. But that didn't mean I didn't internally set a challenge just because I could - on specific works. Chuckling here - read this and say I failed.

One can care, but takes two to share.
The price of admission is always …due, ya know?

“The Price Of Admission…”

I never hear you
you wait
out of hearing…
out of – having.

…And the tears
– so pale, quiet, and frail,
and my fingertips just trace
so softly and lightly…
and each nail edges and slides –
my heart …our ‘time.

……….

crying…
– just beyond my reach
out of living…
– everything I can only dream.

so …flavor my world
— silly-sad, …dark and empty…
— that Cheshire grin
held within
finds
your cheek, your life

…our ‘time.

……….

I never hear you …crying
you wait – just beyond my reach
out of hearing… out of living

out of having – every thing I can only dream.

…And the tears …so …flavor my world
so pale, quiet, and frail, — silly-sad, …dark and empty…
and my fingertips just trace that Cheshire grin
so softly and lightly… held within
and each nail edges and slides – finds

my heart – your cheek – your life
our time.

This IS
the price of our admission.
