There’s Something
Something in the way your blue eyes look back at me,Like a lens into parts of you no one else gets to see,Something in the way your fingers trace the contour of my body,Filled with more than desire; with a thirst to discover every part of me, inside outSomething in the way your arms envelope […]

Fissures
The type of crack that goes undetected, But can still cause harmThin, Understated and silent,Lies under the surface for lengths of time unknown,Then on its own timing, It will push to the front, Damaging everything in its path,Shattering its surroundings,Slithering away, As it watches you crumble into pieces as it goes on to its next […]

Red
Red. Fiery. Bubbling hot, Sometimes when the feeling gets too overwhelming,I imagine myself tapping into it,Just under the surface of my skin,Rage soIt pains my chest,Trickling into everything I touch,Damaged. Used goods. Past its prime,Overdue. Doubt fills my ever thinking mind,Apathy seems to follow me. April 2022- R1
