Ya No Puedo Regresar

a statuesque
assortment
of expressions
and reactions
in the shining eyes
within a face
above a body
all the accidentals
accidentally plucking
my desires
or
as to why
my life
would place you
here
where i've been
bare to life
too long
so never have i had a reason
not to want to never strip again
and hang my heart
to choke and suffocate
for fear
of lonliness
when it's this seldom
i am not
alone
i am the only one
to claim
my life
into which
you have
looked across
a circle
knowing nothing
of my crucible
while self-control
infuriates me
i've no place
to go
myself
requiring
my control
or else
it's here
where i may claim
my life
will always be the same
or maybe
here
i'm to romanticize
myself
a knight
whose pained and cruel desire
will always shine
as tame
to everybody's eyes
but in my dreams
seldom to yours
and in my heart
never to mine
