Poetry and I,
We are inseparable.
We are long lost friends
Who found each other
Inside cracks of foaming hate
And melting sorrow.
Poetry and I,
We are connected by truth.
The days in which I’m met with burden
in dreaming
in reaching
in swallowing between the breaths
Those days
A deathless twist in which my hands grow sore
Obtuse in my mood by the mark of the four
And by sun’s meridian I haven’t got more
But to shamefully begin again
All my heart,
With the blood it pumps.
All the air,
That fills my lungs.
They could take it all,
You were a drug.
I had a taste and I took a part of you and you took a part of me. You were a way to escape to somewhere else, now that I felt I never want to leave.
