Milk being lapped up by the tongue of a cat
Colored so black, midnight shied away
...
Structure built so firm and strict
All it did was remind which corners not to cut
...
Gone. Gone forever now.
Simply gone because it was never mine in the first place.
...
Reoccurring dreams or nightmares
Either so much more powerful than the last
For the dreams are my haunted realities
My nightmares, a sweet slumber's embrace
The sweat of a beaten boar fighting off dogs
Grasping hands for fallen lovers near pools
Could I find no better way to describe my loves?
Beaux May 2018
Pulling tight the strings of my heart as if they'll break any day
Ripping through my spiritual walls as if they were paper mache

Calling to me in every bit of silence
I hear you speaking my name
Whispering how you want me and that no other shall take my place

Crippling ideas of who I should be and what I am through the day
Giving me strength at first glance as that smile comes across your face
Holding tight to my soul like a kid's first grip on a kite

You are my absolute, my everything, my being

And above all else
You give me love and I return it generously

chemicals tell me I'm
the Second Jesus Christ
and the time has come
to crucify this body

now

take of my body
...for it is sin
drink of my blood
...for it is hellfire

I could be at your front door right now.

Pacing back and forth.
Palms too sweaty to knock.
Heart too full, it could pop.

****.
****.
****.

Knock on the ******* door.

Take her in your arms once more.
Make her cry your name once more.
Make the Earth stand still once more.
Make the Gods shy away once more.


****.
I could be at your front door right now.

Never play with a Demon that prays to God.

How incapacitated can I get
Before the thought of You
Isn't You but just you

Lungs coughing up truths
Instead of smoke
Backspacing lines
Instead of snorting them
Tears fill my glasses
While top shelf stays top shelf

More people more souls
I'll consume all that I see
Anything to keep You from Me
