Those dreams where monsters ate you from the shadows,
They repeat in my mind, now, the torment from between your teeth
Crawls up my spine and chafes away the skin, leaving bone to rattle.
I have taken your place in the fire pits, you were the angel, but now
Our skin has turned to charcoal and our smiles are nowhere to be found.
So suddenly, you begin to sing a song that moistens the seed of hope,
This green bud popping out from the ash where my feet once stood.
 The birth of another day is finally welcomed and your chalk-white teeth
Transitioning the story of erosion and passing to one of unrelenting light,
Shining from the eyes that glitter as they stare back at mine.
                                 (It will be hard,
                                  Starting over.)
From agony, there is rebirth, from red, there comes passion—
I never told you that my breath is your blessing and your eyes held me
At bay from the knife tilting in the closet,
So here it is, an ode to your hateful words and chilling disgust,
This tree that has sprung from baby to giant is waving and shedding
Energy for the next sunrise, whether you be gone or the lights never die.
If you are spitting lies from your teeth, saying how glad it had been to meet
The one child you only have saved, let that stone lie in your stomach,
Retch out blood that once poured down my skin for you.
                               (It has been hard,
                                Ignoring your cries.)
In time, we will peel off the rest of this madness, and your face will be seen,
Know it was always loved, and will always be, by me,
Even when your dreams become longer and you can not stand to run farther.
My despising nature beckons me; I long to sprint by its side,
For even though you have left me, I know that you will never hide.
Lasting, you are— my memories cling to your green orbs—
Remembering them flit up to me as you watched me blush and cry,
And as they loved me, bleeding into my mind, causing brain damage—
When the power goes off and you are gone, I think of you so much longer,
But I know she has already won.
                               (It was hard,
                                But now, I’m done.)

In just our underwear, so our skin can touch? Can I hold you while you wrap yourself around me? I’ll play with your hair and drag my fingertips across your skin. I’ll peck at your neck while you giggle and tell me to stop. We could whisper sweet things to each other over pillows that no one could hear. We’d just stare in each others eyes until a smile cracked the silence of our lips…..would you fall in love with me for the night?
