They would have gladly helped.
If he had let them.
If only he had found
The key
To what his dreams
Put forth.
If only he had known
How to identify
What were so many
Opened doors.
Instead, they watched,
Helplessly muted
To his ears,
As he fumbled,
Lost,
Amidst a maze of what
Were to him
Opaque,
Endless,
Walls.
Their lifelines loose,
Adrift
In the current
Of his
Half-formed
Words.

She knew
She was due
For some blue.
She felt the tug,
The subtle hue,
Sliding her joy askew.
A clue
For what the next step
Would do.
The polar opposites
That made her into
Two.
Her mood on queue
For an internal coup.
