The rim around the coffee cup tipped up then down I took a sip
It stung like bees criss crossing on my fingertips like a hush up to my lips
what was this silence? Dark and mellow strange but never bitter
the pitter patter of tiny feet, these long lost demons running down the hall
I stopped and counted them all
I scooped them up like stars in my hand
and shouted to the wind as I released the sand
Now, now, NOW! Do I understand?
Do I unfetter?
I do understand.
I do unfetter.
I lose my better half to become whole.
