Silver lines


I forget to reach and nearly touch
what I must always keep a few millimetres away from
So much boredom chews my edges 
as the scream builds 
boiling like tar from my centre
surviving
and breathing
a few more bursts 
before I run out of myself

silver lines
pour through electronic time
and reach me in the room
that I've been calling "mine"
I wonder if I am still here 
once your words arrive

how was it possible to forget what I once knew?
open eyes are closed again
as years gave me an amnesiac mask

behind which I hope the truth still hides
