A Black Kiss

If we are one

then I am the dark

& you are the light

so blind to

your kisses

in the night

but I see the marks

that make others

hide on sight.

Lucid

I woke up to skeletons

roaming around my bed.

That didn’t bother me

until I saw the one

standing still

in my ensuite,

looking back at me through

the mirror…..that is when

I felt fear.

Forgiveness

What keeps you awake

is your soul

protecting your heartbreak

their spewing of bile

with the mask of a smile

that makes you feel 

completely unreal

try to surrender

your mind to peace

& the flood of anxiety

will cease

forgiveness

will lift that

burden of hate

& give you faith

the power to move on

to trust another soul

to someday bond.
