Darkest Days

Love, Fire.

More like begged, I begin
Straddling your eyes with mine
Such little things go unnoticed
But I take to it this time

And I see the signals there
The perturbed petite not-thoughts
Pestering, poisonous, princess
All caught up in your fraught

You unleash this toxic side
A reaction from an action
You'd wish I'd just shut up
But I'm less of a redaction

I know my needy, filthy ways
I've come to know my own
I recognize this annoyance
like a sin I'd need to atone

But minds aren't always easy
Coming and going like fright
You wish the love was painless
But painless I'll always fight

Muddled blood mud
Mixed together like ooze
Seeping and spilling from the rim
Of my troubling worldwide views

The world is in a different light
Looking through my eyes
Strangers come and go and
my peripheral is irrationalized

But like a lens placed over a lens
My life you'll never extinguish
Because when it comes to solicitude
My eyes will never distinguish
