Why Does It Take So Long?

Coming from nowhere 
frozen water 
  going nowhere, anyway 
      quiet 
home? 
    homeless? 
awaiting flow 
to the river-blood 

Eternal cordless molecules 
this is how it feels 
            where are my fears? 
         where are my feelings? 
feeling that cold 

Death to Fears 
death to  Impossibles 
            you say you believe 
            death to wanting 
when you don't fit inside 
        tie them to your bed 
death to the future 

Dance to candles 
shadows dancing 
               unfinished cigarette 
close the windows 
to the outsider wind 
Trials 
Trials 
Trials 

Open your books 
lie to the floor 
        unwrite your thoughts 
Unreached worlds 
past in the past 
untuning strings 
Trials 
Trials 
Trials 
It's cold 
windows are closed 
walking naked 
discarding pages 
           why does it take so long?
