Swinging

This fraying rope will break before I reach
The other side of you where no one dares
To open up your mind and cause a breech
Of safety and reprieve that you won't share
Experience has made your heart believe
The other side of you does not exist
Instead, you make my innocence retreat
And justify my love with angry fists
The water rises deeper as I swing
Further from your spiritless stagnant stare
And now I only hope my death will bring
Contrivance that I lived my life aware
The fraying rope, though wound with concrete bind
Abstracts your heart until you lose your mind
