#opacity
Where do I even begin?
An attraction like sin,
Further into this web, I spin.
Clawing out of the dark,
From the hollows of my heart,
Reaching out for your spark.
These words are not untold,
Born from smears of gold,
Right there for you to unfold.
Perhaps they were too opaque;
Just another one of my mistakes,
Letting the sun's rays pave my way.

I want to turn down our opacity
occupy the same physical space.
line up our hearts to beat together.

it was probably a mistake
the day you swore her eyelashes were wet from the rain;
the night you promised to never belittle the importance of the sun
because here she lies,
tears precipitating,
stomach lurching
at the thought of you and
I promise you, I swear
that the sun could never shine
nearly as bright as she did
when she started
rising and
falling
for you.
you have opacified her
radiance
you have shunned her
selfless light
and she who was once a sun
is now a hopeless, spiraling
monsoon.
