hands run along the arch
as the skin
of the fruit ripens, the trial these fingers
leave, blazes with a need to follow.
to your light
digest me
and my shadows.
leave your glitter
for me to find.
a year later
take with you
my independence.
conjure the beast of evolution.
as i grip and sink
my teeth into your openings.
savory every drip is.
there’s been a thirst
to restore.
all that was once lost.
now, i wait
while the drought approaches.
from over the mountains
a tainted view, as the clouds part ways.
to reveal all that is ahead.
the future holds with it
a spear of truth.
tempted to pierce all that stands.
before my feet, the love for you
that comes with grief.
seeping through
the walls of my sanity.
until this room is no longer vacant
but before then.
i will cherish the juice that drips.
onto my lips
through this fruitful kiss.
i've been in love a lot and i think my sad/happy ratio is extremely imbalanced.
My adaption to abandonment and departure prevents growth in other areas of my life. I expect things to never last. I give in to my weakness. I let my mental health overcome my reality and turn the garden of life into a graveyard.
