Silence.
She shines,
In my world, and in ours.
She is sovereign and severed in scarred
Stasis.
-
The integrity of his being, in shambles.
His ears perk at the sound of her cadence.
He rambles
Half truths and aphorisms. No patience
Left to spare.
-
Two hands... Two eyes. Yet, one voice to waste my energy.
How long would your disguise endure? Enough to rend and render me
Unworthy?.. Of you and my salvation? Keep me true.
Clarify my path and keep my passage close to you.
-
Sing me your solemn tune once more
Rip my chest open and brush your hands
Against my flesh
Like shards of porcelain coated
With honey
Tear the skin from my eyelids I
Can't sleep anyways
Pricks and aches within the crimson veins of
Exhaustion
In the clear of my stained eyes
In time
I will rest
