Limbless trees

Limbless trees
My tongue wrapped around a flying trapeze
The things that I pride myself on
rarely breath threw the pores of a relationship
I don't know if its because I'm multidimensional
or just balless
Quite frankly boneless
I cant seem to find a way out of these cheeks
The cracks of my teeth
Lost in the blindness of their eyes
Something supple isnt necessarily inexperienced
But I can't find my way out of my own Will
And I am happy to find that it still exists
in this formed spirit
Drugged and dormant
Limbless and plastic wrapped
A sweet pulsing ghost of something
that never truly was
I'm sick of tying my tongue in two
just because
Limbless trees and
My Motor is running
I just can't find the keys

Author notes

I hope that you enjoy this. It may be on the sort of odd side.
Its about being shy and afraid that I wont be met with acceptance.

    Yeah, you're right, it is kind of odd but I like it. I like the range of language and the people above me have said that this poem is unique and I'd agree with that. I like it a lot though, it doesn't seem forced at all, which is good and it flows well from one line to the next. Nice work!

    Very unique, but I like it. A lot. I'm having a hard time finding words to describe this, but that's a good thing - it's making me think a lot. Hahaha. I really love the way that you use your words - you seem to choose them very carefully, and they work wonderfully in your writing. I'm impressed with your talent. Keep it up
