The Betrayal of Lumen
lights dance
playfully, strikingly
agile
as they waltz across
her
tear-stained, blood-drained
unlocked face
i found your lips on the ground
i found your lips on the ground
i put them to my cheek
cradled them lovingly

they spoke to me promises
in feather-light caresses
imploring

i give them back to
the crisp green grass
with tears

i don't pretend
to want just part of you
disillusionment
disillusionment

swallow back tears
past the mountain
a bitter pill lodged in my throat
acrid taste disintegrating hope
the flavor tasted over and over again
like the heartbeat in the dry, cracked skin at the end of my fingertips
a pain that cannot be hidden
a constant reminder of being too open
winter's gift
Twisted Corsettwisted corset
eager hands
tangled in strings
of the heart

lovers
denied time

slip away
Alternatively, Zeros and Ones a measure tempered in shadows
time talks zeros and ones
speaking binary with a slip of the tongue
he divulges the rules of give and take

a salve, a killer
as he passes, he heals my heart
forces my eyes open
he knows my body
my face
gives me no respite
pulls me closer to my end everyday
and yet my heart beats a staccato
upon seeing his face every morning

i love him, i hate him
i hang upon his every word
when he talks
zeros and ones
Damaged Expectationsbutchered pulp
tenderized
with salted words

throbbing beat
drowned
with silence

cavernous wound
exposed
through a blanket with holes

something turned to nothing
i taste your desire in meyour breath on my cheek
shivers to my lips
races with mine
sharing moist heat
i taste your desire in me

-i hold you in my thoughts
i am opened (A Pseudo Ode to a Poet)now

soft opening
put your finger in
feel the moisture
the heated
staccato beat
of fluid expression

before

cold wasteland
fingers not welcomed
denied the dryness
the arid
withered thump
of comatic depression

then

fucking poem
fingers hands lips teeth tongue
fought for air
the decadent
pounding clack
of worded manifestation

you poet burned my fortress
ignited my voice
branded me one of you

i am opened
give me your hand
but interrogatives were never introducedif i were to say what i want how i want when i want
i would talk of you you and me you and she you and they
i could speak to the trees mountains clouds sun and see

i would declare:

shaded life peaks soft white density with a glow from my eyes
love tingles even with a ghost and family in the mix
where doesn't matter why scares me who is i

but interrogatives were never introduced.
Do You See What I See?Mother

do you see what I see?

you are the blue in my eyes
my lips, a mirror
trace the contours of my face
and read you in me
notice the shape of my hands as yours
time-spent
look upon my cheeks

your heart is my heart
kindness was your gift
a beauty given without credit
--you can no longer deny
that your nature bleeds in me

your laughter is my fortune
that i share with you
while always wanting more
and i willingly take

do you see what I see?
do you see you in me?

you are my true love
A Longing EmbraceI long

more today
than yesterday

and with each day
desire vibrates
exponentially
through me

                 for you
infinitively with abandona measure tempered in shadows
time talks zeros and ones
speaking binary with a slip of the tongue
he divulges the rules of give and take

ever illusory in nature
Chronos whispers promises in the dark
romantic syllables
inconceivable in the light

and yet do i hang upon his every word
past present
infinitively
with abandon
i step into you with impurity i step into you with impurity
embrace me in warmth
lick my skin
get me
wet

i love a good shower
don't you?

Break my fall

:iconastrangeallure:

Broken skin
peeled by clouds
in my fall from hope

Asphalt absorbed
in landing
seeps in
turning me to stone

Hardened heart
stills
with murmured cry
echoing to silence

Wake me
from this nightmare

Break my fall
