Caught in the Barrier
I have done it again
forced red tears to stream
down my withered face
as if rubies were gathering
to make a circle a gemstone
ringing out before my eyes everywhere.
Streaming with anxiety but perplexing nothing.
My body wears a smile of accomplishment against
some standing stone to pray against with
semi-precious red tears crumbling descent
into the river of memories of no return, I'm
crying out silently against white walls
watching myself disappear through the floodgates.
I've reached the barrier and have been caught
Within the nets of the reality of life
Is this new life or old life, who can say?
