Pass the Salt?

A subtle
Scratch down the
Chalk board of your soul

Please, pass the salt?

Swallow your meal
Chew slow
She doesn’t know
Disguise your gaze
Across the expanse
At him
Does he know?
How many delicious
Secrets you hold
Will he notice?
A twitch in your lip
The glimmer in your eye
Will she comprehend?
The sins you commit
He couldn’t know
Could she?
Swallow slow
Don’t choke
Desire can be thick
As it goes down

Please, pass the salt?

A burning balm for the
Guilt in your mind

Blackened

Wallowing in me

Huddled in a soothing

Embrace of self…

Selfishness

Self-centered

Self…

I’ve no idea

Who or what

I will be

When I’m gone

Will I find lucidity?

Each direction I turn

Walls close slowly

Devouring the last of my sanity

Everything dead

Blackened

Painted by your hand

Fleeting moments of clarity

In between monotonous

Decomposing memories

I’m quite certain

You’re alone

Rotting and cold

Coloring the walls of the box

Containing your soul

Wallowing in you

Huddled in a soothing

Embrace of the box

Remembering who

I thought you were

Just Decide

Emotions overwhelming
Twisting and knotting
I’m drowning
I can’t breathe
My words thrown
Back at me
Swallowing my need
To know
To understand
Explain it please
Enlighten me
Punish me
Save me from my sin
I’m sinking
Don’t you see
You own me
With Power
From your fingertips
You determine
What will be
Fight with me
Stay with me
Or leave me to die
Just decide

I'd Fall

I'm terrified
to be near you
hold me
closer don't let
me go
the walls are strong
around me
protecting me from
fools but
not from you
climb higher
don't go
I'm broken and
too warm in your
arms to care what
others will think when
I'm with you
the feelings
grow so strong
taking hold
of my heart and
my soul
I'd be lost if
you ever let go
I'd fall

Wishing You

The pain in my chest
is too great
pushing and pulling
my emotions
create such
agony
My heart burns for
you to come
back to me
The knot in my throat
a bitter pill
to swallow while
I stare at your picture
and wish
always wanting
you here
by my side where
you belong
