Suffering, I achieve
On the sheets too.
Memories…slow it down,
for just a time as now.
A tempering I could use and with a turn,
so easy and resolute to drown the heat.
Suffering, I complete—
rendering a slow burn.
Knowing me, knowing you, memories of
these words:
“Go easy, be slow to heed.
On the edge of all time, our time.”
But, I never could, it slows us down.
On the edge of our fire.
Forever knows the answer to something too old to learn.
Suffering, I achieve—
On the sheets too.
Memories…slow it down,
for just a time as now.
A tempering I could use, another turn
so easy and resolute to drown the heat.
Suffering, complete—
rendering a slow burn.
For just a time as now.
So easy these words are, on the edge of our lives.
Knowing me, knowing you: a temporary flame to achieve the suffering.
Memories slow us down…for just a time as now.
On the edge of our fire, a slow heat.
Wish I could follow suit, but it’s a hand I can’t beat.
Rendering this slow burn.
