Uncertainty is set in motion,

every second the sickening insanity grows,

like an epidemic in my soul,

only one antidote can restore this growing mind ****.

Unfortunately this disease of the soul,

has an expiration date,

the elixir would have take moments to cure,

such a time sensitive virus.

Having many irons on the fire,

now that’s an authentic alibi for a dull flame.

It appears as though I was only a match.

Well, I BURNT out.

N̶o̶w̶ Always just smoke in mirrors.

I was allured to your forbidden fruit.

You mis-led me with your charm, sweet-talk and charisma.

I’m relieved your varied signals did not last,

for then I may endure a heavy heart for a few seasons.

Your grand illusion merits Applause Lothario!

Bravo,

King † Judas

you sent an inquiry to my heart.
anxiety rose.
i appealed your probe of my soul.
because i needed to attend to the inflection,
of the phrases that potentially could lead to the finale.
little do you see i’m like a ******,
hidden among the rooftops of the metaphysical.
i analyze every stir, shift, and statement,
this all happens at reckless readiness.
a sharpshooter protects someone or something,
i only ride shotgun for my heart.
history has validated i must.
i’m fearful if i don’t my sorrow,
will engulf my soul, if that transpired,
i would be vacant
frame,
and my book,
would be forgotten,
no one
appreciates, values or loves a fragmented
soul.

what an unexpected response,

such a normally dreadful hour,

your improvisation was,

strangely pleasant.

i spoke of a companion,

you warmly obliged,

encore; quite unforeseen,

your psyche perplexed me.

we danced in diamond caves,

stiffly skimming,

each others surface,

faintly uttering counterfeit apologies.

the occasion moved along,

awkward glances and grazing,

turned into obscene materials,

something.

booked my ardor,

spontaneity, ambition,

       &

those chromatic apertures.

the enigmatic attribute you carry

                        has

the speaker openly overtly enamored.
