Quiet slumbers

Heartache lays wrapped in patience,
precious clothing that is spun with release from all emotion

Heres a mindless slumber,
a prose scratched angirly into tombstones dressed with glossy white rose petals.

Lilacs lie in stationary conquests,
around decaying wood spralled into the dark moist soil

Pretending to see myself in a mirror

painted

foggy and gray
precision worked wonders into the sketchings of myself,
blurred in your Absence

Realistically feeling what being alone brings

Quiet slumbers as muses speak sweetly
singing inspiration of new work
drawing your insanity
to a place where
loneliness
took over

I can't believe I've never read anything by you. Half way through this my mouth was dropping open and I was completely enthralled. I'm going to be reading a lot of your work now. This was torturously good.

nothing delves quite as deep as your works, they are delicately precise and so full of emotion i feel weighted beneath your poems, surrounded by your melancholy words

Where did you learn to speak with such a dark tongue? I just can't help but be curious as to how many beds of broken glass and hot coals, you've been raked across?! Your work is amazing.
