14352, from a book that will never get published

Eclipse (when u and i verse)

when u and i verse
we are broken pencils
and black pens with no ink
writing words that describe
feelings unknown and searching
for lost treasures
hidden deep within our minds

when u and i verse
we throw stones, place blame,
and shrug shoulders wondering
if infinity does exist
and paint colors on
canvases that dictate our moods,
bow heads in shame and move
from 1 destination to the next

when u and i verse
we call sunlight and rain
to our aid
dance in moonlit rays that
shelter us from harm and
wander about looking for
safety when none is left
to be found, we take things
back then wonder why we did them
finding ways to express feelings
that could never be understood

when u and i verse
we are metaphors within
poems that shed new light
on surfaces too deep to ignore
and voice opinions that shouldn’t
be uttered in the first place,
we live in glass houses and peek
out off brass windows staring into
streets of gold hoping one day
to become rich with knowledge.
