I found this poem on my iTunes playlist. titles of songs that together pulled out an poem that had been dormant in my fingertips.
Accidental babies, all at once
(Almost crimes)
from accidental rooftop love.
Angels of another, lonely day
Ashes
Beautiful in the moonlight behind my eyes.
Before it's too late... sing me a lullaby
not of Fire, or Ice...
but on how to bend the Black and Blue
to better days for daughters of despair and doom.
So when brand new days bought of the borrowed time
(of hearts)
pierce the silence like bullets of bright lights--
can you see the tears in her eyes?
Outside, cars and telephones take us away from cautions lovers
Are we carried?
Captivated? Hostage to the barrel of the clock
that beats
slow rhythms
of cold water hearts
