thesa May 2019
i knew i couldn't survive you
a second time
so instead of
waiting, suffering
i left

and for once
i'm not sorry
Colm May 2019
Catch me
Like a Firefly in a glass tomb
Like a candlelit flame in a dark room

I am narrative alive and well
Time reincarnate
And I give myself most humbly forward

Charred and broken at both ends
Until my own ashes turn lie and truth
I burn on every living tongue for you
God bless the words which avail to me, and actually want to be spoken.
