She's reaching

She sat silently 
arms stretched out
Ward 
Reaching 
Into substances that have evaporated 
Time dispels the distance 
Between us 
Youth 
Silent 
Cunning 
Into wind
Words spill out ward 
Reaching to be told 
Searching to behold 
Longing for
Desire 
Visions for the truth 
Long expired 
Things ago i lost in youth 
Parental blinds on eyes closed tight 
Whispers and longings go unanswered in the night
Arms outstretched reach my body 
My mind opens
Just in time to keep me from slipping 
Underneath myself
Pain sits on the shelf asking again to come in - have a time with me
Rejection is fragile 
I don't want to play-
Keeps me cunning 
As I slip away 
Works me over 
My mind has a heart to say
Words out loud
That keep me this way 
Distresses 
Crumbling 
Time after time I give them away 
Caught up to see a sweetie in the night 
Laughing blind 
Looking for my guiding light 
Who's love is for me 
Feeling just right 
We escape into arms shelter 
Long reaching
For something right
I'm scared 
Barely there 
Breaching 
simplicity 
I reached out my hand - i was 
Touching skin with flames i dared to consume 
Stretching my way back to you-
