Words and wine

Words became wine that got us drunk and made us believe we will be forever unheard on this galaxy full of poetry

will the day happen
or will it quietly pass by
a spider
to most
disguised below darkness
to the corner it hides
yet when it gets seen
catastrophes
monstrosities
caught in the light
and no longer hid
from all of their minds
who so long ago
decided
spiders
were creatures to fear
like the day
that now crawls
not in darkness
but in fearful trembling
light

i wish i had someone
to cradle my head
and whisper in my ear
that life isn't as bad as it appears.
i wish had i someone
that would come over
in the middle of the night
to let me cry until its alright.
i wish i had someone
that i could speak to
about anything and everything
and i would listen to their everything.
i wish there was someone
out there waiting
for me
like i wait for them.

I hear that bitter sweet voice
Sharp and cloying
She's so beautiful
But cold and spiteful
Leaving traces of her touch
"I'll take you away from this"
I won't listen to her
I reach out to something safe
No answer
She gains confidence with every ring
No anwer
"Remember my sweet release"
I try again stretching up clawing out of the pit
No answer
I stop reaching
She has my attention

It's in a dark room,
upstairs,
in a settling house
that crooks and creaks
and sighs in all its
silent stories

that the autumn air
comes in again
it bites again
I feel it kiss
my skin again
and breathe
another
story into
me
