Childlike symptoms
Spread over you like a disease
Coiled and boiled
Brewing heavily beneath
Dirty drops
Of tainted rain
Falling
Faintly down
Tears on the windowpane
Yours. Outside
Mournful mirky weather
Raging on
And confused you mistook me
For someone who cares
About your rotting slur
And the unwelcome words
That break heavy off your chest
But
I miss you not a drip
Or a sip
Or a spluttered pot
Of the muddy mess
You made of yourself
And left nestled in my head
Riddled and rattled
Inside a bed of lies
A filthy hell
Is you in disguise
And all that is left
Is all that you've become
Weathered and wilting
And fumbling undone

My fingers are alight
ReplyDeleteLike fire
Energy bursting from within them
Powering through the ends
Like swords of light
Racing time
And challenging heartbeats
You did this
Brought me back to life
And made everything
Feel like electric fireworks
And magnetic tides
Throwing me with incredible force
Towards you
And everything we are becoming
It's the most beautiful flame
I have ever known
And I could sit forever
Hypnotically watching it dance
Twirling energy of light
Richest amber raging
Taunting the dark of night
And removing the blackness
Of an old life
Mine
Along with any of the shadows
That I used to own
