Poems
May 2014
cerebral hemorrhage.
lights shining down a dim hallway
illuminate the ghostly remains of
you—
still slinking about within
the deep recesses of my mind.
inhale,
clutch you tightly within my lungs
[I cannot bear to release you hastily,
for your appearances are far too rare,
our memories much too few].
the scent of musk
&
former ardor
lingers in my nostrils;
flashbacks of sweat & bourbon
radiate in my temples,
throb in my chest.
I
pause:
distant cackling replaces
your former fervent whispers
as my true recollections reveal themselves
out of the darkness—
memories of torment
& deception
& vices
asphyxiate
me;
blood begins to seep
from scarred over wounds
& I remember
why
you
are
but a
ghost.
*exhale.
you
inhale
&
I
asphyxiate
you.
