Midnight

WORK IN PROGRESS - FEEDBACK APPRECIATED!! ;)

---—--------------------------------------------

On nights when the moon

Sheds herself of pretense

She speaks,

Reaches in,

Spins out thoughts

Like yarn, unraveling

 

Shows me what I keep

What should never be spoken

Shows me what I dream

What should never be seen

 

And I can almost feel

The cool touch of metal,

The warm after- blaze

Against my temple,

Of a ****** barrel

Giving birth to a silencing roar -

Pushing through

Emptying mind,

Thoughts splattered,

An abstract on my walls,

 

The things I keep

Dripping

Crimson

In her light.
