It Was

It was night.

I felt the fire

in my bones

freeze to numbness.


This was my

own life,

my own choices.

With her I was free.


The dirty angel.

Pale fingers

turning my hopeless

heart to a black void.


My only thought

And another one.

Night was

another world.


The hell of day

dissipated. Long

forgotten like a

middle school crush.


Nothing but the

chilling release.

A burning peace

that she brings.


How could this demon

be so sweet and pure?

A toxic candle

in the dark of my life.
