accomplice

*Regret, my accomplice

in this game I play

Mind a constant commotion

emotions words can't say

 

Juxtaposition of heart

and this sinning shape

Barely any surfaces left

for this silk to drape

 

This isn't shattered soul,

or wandering nomadic being

Just curiosity of a bird

with newly sprouted wings

 

I've fallen plenty

woken up completely alone

Yet I'm still thirsty

for the taste of the unknown

 

So regret, my accomplice

follows me night and day

Exploring the crevices

among the devil's fray*
