Darkness
Just a working title, although a dark poem
Rated:

Avg Rating: (9)
My lips as the line
Not one smile has kissed
By I've licked the blade
The taste of salt not iron

No more
ups and downs
Like the edge of a saw
Each new life line slashed
and I can't breath
no more

Is it your jealousy I stir?
No need for anguish
The light does not want me
Of that, I am sure
See these wings?
They were meant for darkness

And with the happiness
My cold soul static
It's throat exposed
Waiting
Vunerable and shallow
And I am on edge

I know
The silent agony of love
And I breathe
The cold exhale as broken
And now I ask-
Is it not enough
that my tears run scarlet?
Passionate
Lust your mistress could not comprehend
Which I 'choose' not to end

So here I am
in the path of darkness,
Already lost
by the time you read this.
