hearing tears
from the sweet cage
i talk
and touch the pain away
i crush and press
caress
tease
nudge
and slap
and push
and scream
and thrust
and spank
the pain away
but you cry
and wail
and shake
and collapse
as i rock you in my cradle
you cry in tides
uncontrollably
because the distance
remains
as you are lost
within the sweet cage
and my baby lullabies
can t sing you back
so i only want you
to miss me
until
i become meaningless once again
as you are lost
within the sweet cage
Author notes
i woke from a wonderful dream
where the loss of youth
disturbed me
greatly
do you have a clue

excellent
I cannot know your dream
I can only empathise with your loss
In fitful sleep, as we turn and toss.
