Twin Flames
Inspecting this anomaly
Before this
I enjoyed my autonomy
You didn’t exist
Or so I thought
Perhaps on a world known only to astronomy
The extension of a soul
Two parts
To a whole
Twin flames
We are the same
Darkness that destroys the light
Enveloping the mind
Like the blanket of night
Like an arrow striking in a blur
These thoughts
Impossible to deter
Encompassing all that we know
Trapped in the maze
Nowhere to go
How does one move on
Knowing the other part exists
The magnetism
Continues to persist
Rearranging all I thought I knew
The tangled mess of emotion
Insuring you withdrew
Behind the walls
You’ve built so high
Denying the fact
You feel anything at all
I hear the lie
Lingering in room
The fact you exist
Making it so hard to resume
Living my life like I did before
Alone
How can I close the door
With the unknown
Gnawing on the edge
The echo of the mallet
Driving in the wedge
Words are easy enough
Saying I’ll let it lie
The roiling emotion
Buried inside
Knowing the other half exists
Impossible to resist
Bind me
Stop me from pursuit
Telling myself there must be
Another route
The extension of a soul
The weight within my chest
What a tangled mess
I’ve lost all control

Two halves

To a whole

The extension

Of a soul
