My Untouchable Face

The effortless nature of the unreliable narrator

leaden butterflies
balletic in sepia music
falling like trees
rising like rocks
express the difficulty of loving
heart-weary and head-solemn
void of gravity
pulling the silence
between the notes
until all is claustrophobic
waiting for the air
after the cadence they fall
strength returns
once again elevation comes
taut as an expectant string
heavier than a moon-sigh
suddenly discordant free rhythm
shows the way out
they follow energetically
find the exit and are free
