Fable
Flying through your sky
Restraining myself from recalling
Retracing areas still missing fragments from falling
Sinking scales start to slide
Spent too much time in realities denied
Prisoner to the movie in your head
Interpreting words and wishing for different ones instead
Rewind and replay it
But just the parts everyone hated
I know it all sounds so jaded
Maybe it is but I’ll go once more
Still something has me stuck in the frame of your door
when I laced up my shoes
Again and again ran through the same loops
Tried to find missed lines in the sand
Some clues to map out a way we can start to understand
The sun went down and I can’t see my feet without the electricity
Now I notice when I breathe parts of me don’t feel the same energy
I don’t need to look in the mirror to know the prey became the hunter
Traded places with the haunter of my sacred spaces
I didn’t know your calcification could be contagious
Remember the wine bar and our table where we wrote the beginning of this fable?
-Encantado…Mi amor
-Forever more….Before we say “the end”



Some relationships do not end cleanly.
They keep replaying in fragments,
like a room the mind continues walking through
long after the lights went out.
“The frame of the door” stayed with me.
I can’t find the words to describe how brilliant your piece is! I loved it so much, it feels so vivid and the metaphors are so gorgeous, amazing work! 🫶🏻
