6015 Between longing and anxiety

It is the oppression 

Of your lack of love 

Upon me: 

An elephant's 

Foot 

Crushing 

My chest; 

The shattering 

Of the balance 

In the waters 

Of the skating 

Insect; 

A stone 

Statue, 

Without faith, 

Sinking as it 

Tries to walk 

On the sea.

Your lack of love 

Bends 

My desires 

Toward 

The narrow tunnel 

Of sleeplessness.

And I don't want to live 

Like this, between longing 

And anxiety.
