- 5:38 pm
the world is graying slowly, and colours are disappearing. and then for a while; just a short while theyll surge back, till the lights dim again; but when comes night; at night all is blue and crystalline; we breathe in the dust of night diamonds.
Pleasure turns to the pain
lessons learned from the strain
questions burned in my brain..
about whether love is humane in its touch.
these thoughts are like salmon
swimming upstream in the tears of your deceit.
fighting the current
hurt that kills more than is created
by the chaos of our intertwined emotions.
chaotic because the anchor of Error's arrow
has been plucked from the vessel of my undying infatuation
separation not as simple as the distance between us
my mind no longer possessed by demons that have been
the overseers of my enslavement to your lies
the seeds of these lies rooted so deeply
they have cracked the foundation of what we once shared
allowing the faith in us i had sealed inside
to gush out like a river
ripping the image of our future together from my thoughts
as violently and as brutally
as if it were a child being taken from its mothers arms
I'm left surrounded in darkness
but i refuse to be swallowed by it
my loneliness like the night air
invisible to the eye
obvious to the touch
it is cold comfortableness
yet if i could do it all over again
id do it in the same skin I'm in
to lay down and let love die
just stay down and let love lie?
no, no..not i
id stay around and let love fly
even though i have seen its darkest form
deceit n
othing else could taste this warm
or feel this sweet
