detangling the storm above me, i hurry to push pen to paper– to quiet the thunder, the lightening, the rumbling clouds that threatens more than common rain.
detangling the storm
Category: Short Poem
drown
i once drowned in your love. every breath was a struggle, yet i pursued on. suffocation turned me blind to your actions but i readily gasped in your poisons.
glory
i hurry to part the clouds to witness the full glory of your beaming face.
ice cream
our love is like ice cream: you give me your all but it eventually melts– messily, dripping on my skin until it's rough and sticky.
lost
you are more than desire, you are more than lust, the tang of pleasure is addicting, i know but you must pace yourself unless you will become lost.
