Darling Nov 2020
Your eyes burn my skin
when you look my way.
The slink in your step
draws the attention of others.
A hissing sound escapes your jaws
a clear warning sign.
Backing up I feel trapped
by the weight of your energy.
Use and abuse is all you do
except i'm not afraid anymore.
Darling Nov 2020
Let the light soothe your soul,
and adjust your eyes to the red.
Breathe in the must scent,
and feel the bass in your body.
Sense the chill travel down your spine,
as you fall deeper in love.
Take in everything around you,
as you plan to stay forever.
Darling Nov 2020
Opened window,
breeze floating through the room.
A lit candle,
flickering with the wind.
Incense burning,
with a steady smoke stream.
The rhythmic sound,
of the fan spinning slowly.
A single flick,
of the lighter sparking up.
Darling Nov 2020
A dark figure in the hall,
coat dragging behind.
An inviting wave he motions me near,
I follow down the stairs.
He floats out the front of the house,
all the way down the street.
My shoeless feet leave the ground,
and now I'm among the stars.
Darling Nov 2020
Sunken in,
blank stare,
frozen lips,
messy hair,
sharp bones,
doesn't care.
Darling Nov 2020
Passing by I catch a glimpse,
of something alien to me.
The image morphs as I watch,
who I used to be melt away.
The flesh hangs off my face,
and my hands collect the pieces.
Darling Nov 2020
Running miles all alone.
nothing to nurture my weakened bones.
