Guide

Still,
i have not died
quiet,
I can be your guide
for the time spent on selfish endeavors
had been set aside
some time ago

but your eyes,
speak truths yet unspoken
see not exponential threats
so broken go
my lies,
beautiful lies
with which to teach the way
to heaven
while green is the sound
of my heart breaking
is not the color of my soul aching
is not the blade of
your sharpest
bite

so there is distance in the
cool air tonight
but you are
still

and there is reluctance on
the fence for now
but i have not died
quiet.
