That faith or fear,
Heaven or hell,
Your dispositions.
Feeding on you.
Carress your angel,
Demon'll subdue.
Louden your courage,
Poltergeist'll squelch.
Demons, not above
your head. You,
a conduit to soul.
You embossom
universe.
Demons are not above you
like water
I poured myself into her until she was overflowing at the brim

like reinforced steel
I bridged my heart to hers and welded myself to her soul

like the sun
I filled myself with light to cover her darkness

like a blanket
I shielded her from the harsh world underneath the covers

like magnets
I orbited her aura until we inevitably collided

like a seed
I felt myself growing up from her

Then, like an idiot
I could tell she felt nothing.
I am painting myself in shades of grey
Dipping the brush
Contouring away
Bright colors have no place here today
Just a simple expression of emotion
