make believe words: disunentangled

…are you now
recorded in this
mental index
we two souls
chinese finger
trap
interconnected
will i never
relax
& release you
must you be
destined
to remain
immortalized
at the
nether regions
of a closet
shelved
shoebox

picture
fading memory
where once
you were

now
this
ancient
time capsule
of great
civilization
flourishing
in pre-history
here lies
the memento
of its
grandeur
disunentangled
won’t come
loose from
matted locks
love
fingers jostle
as nappy
hair
keeps
the confines
we are
entirely
too in tune
with one
another
to remain
so close
as lovers
the same
