Just a bed
Jenerous Oct 2012
My bed is an island, deserted and lonely
Our once playground turned prison
Just a bed, sheets, pillows, blankets
Yet I'm bound by your presence,
                    or lack thereof.

I lay here alone with my thoughts
Sensory memory attempts to recreate you
Limbs entangled, contorted, comfortable
So I may drift away, back to sleep,
                    back to you.

Nemesis
Jenerous Jan 2013
Time is no friend.
I fight her to yield, show mercy on my soul.
Bounding ahead she steals my love away.
Only pausing to flaunt what she's taken.

To befriend time is to let me live in love,
Soul satisfied.

— The End —
