unvisible


if I had only known
love would cut me
making days hurt

light unvisible
as the light house
turns into darkness

so I row on familiar seas
a scream away
from open wounds

clinging to a moment
untouchable

oxymorons add to the imagery of blind lighthouse and clinging to that which is "untouchable" and sensory images a scream away from open wounds--ouch!

so much aching in these words, stings a heart... i can feel the disappointment and the yearning for the love to not have taken a turn towards the end... my interpretation... an emotive write... thanks for sharing :f xx
