I haunt the shadows of your thoughts
My nails rip from their beds
clawing sanity
just trying to climb out of
my feelings
my fight leaves breadcrumbs
but light causes shadows
even in the brightest smile
and while I prefer the shade
...or used to
I churn to life in that place where
my ebb meets your flow
****
You haunt the shadows of my thoughts
You run non-stop
floating on surface tension
knowing the pit is hollow
...it just seemed easier that way
My kindness
as comforting as it is cruel
in the shadows behind a smile
that blinds me
...beautifully
It feels like magic
where your ebb meets my flow
Float on that surface tension
I'll wait in the hollow
It's hard to move when we
neither run nor chase
