"So I steal your shadow from the sheets
And it lays breathless beneath the
Stars with me."
Karisa Brown Nov 2018
Our backs hold stories
Not even the spine
On a book can handle

I wore the shadow like armour
Thin and hallow inside
It protected me
Or so it seemed
Always catching up
To hide
Never to see a smile
Or run toward the light

Above the night
We force into
Great components
Of afterlife after afterlife

We sail down bridges
And escape
The tunnels end
Finding peace and solice
Where once there was
A war within

The saying
The old saying goes
Whatever cleanses your soul
Do it
But what if trying to get there
You find yourself
Burried under bricks
And countless number of
Screws found loose under your pillow
And sorrys that never get too sad
Incase you didnt notice
And goodbyes that carry no weight because you never truly
Leave anyone
Speechless
Or
Or
The old nylon sheets
That creep under the opening
Of black tongues taunting
And whisper making
Again and again
You taunt me
Remembering all the old
You lost me
You really did lose me
I lost you
I really did loose you
And with no regret on your end
That i can find
And only
Stuck unhappy
And on fire
With noone to call on
Between manic and depressed
No one to stare at
So it took this test
To arrive at
This place I call Destiny
Still unsure
Of whats left of me
Knowing the End
Is just the beginning
And I can fly to new heights
If i choose too
But i really dont want to give
up on losing you
I said
The old saying goes
What leaves will come back
And what stays is
Old and dead anyways
Did you fly from me
Cuz you're so far ahead
I can't even see
And your rocky stash
Of pillows ive awoken to
Has preformed
Magic many times before
You're just not at the door
And i don't think I can make it
Without your sword
Can I borrow it?
I'll give it back in just
A little bit
you see I'm going into battle again
With these demons and my monsters
With another woman
And the old saying goes
News is what bought her back
The end .

We connected...
I trusted her to see me today
It felt like I gave a piece
of my soul away
She's friendly and kind
I really like her style
I think she'll do just fine
I will work on trusting me
