My fingertips hold on to the edge Of our love that is slipping Slowly into the deep ocean of Emotion. Now wave by wave I feel adrift My body drowning into darkness My heart filling with the blue.

Blue
A drip of sadness starts to Seep through the gaps Of our existence and Follow shadows, wraps Around your footsteps and Blinds the eyes we hold. Brining us together in a unity of Fallen tears that blindfold us Humanity, standing forth broken In a dark place that we don’t wish To be, where our spoken words mean Nothing.

Fracture
I saw the light, but I swear, It flashed between my eyes. This tunnel I walk blindly Being hit a hundred times. My skin I tear and tear, To find the light once more But all I get is nothing, But blood and flesh and gore.

Wave
Sometimes I feel like writing but sometimes it takes days, for me to think of something and bring the pen to page.

Struggle
Perhaps I'll move to the cardboard box that sits under the stairs. I'll say I found a new apartment, one at no expense. I'll have my own aerosphere 3rd-class postage stamps, punched into my knees. I'll get to know the gloves and folds that package at my skin- let the corners of the box soften into different shapes and alleviate my fears.

Parcel Me
Oh sun- Kiss down on my Dulcet lips And give your rays of warmth, So that I may drool Yellow from my mouth. Let my insides be a raging fire and Break my skin to an amber glow. Oh sun- Beam your healing rays of blonde And let me turn to gold.
