Description
it was of my own
(stupid, stupid)
freedom that led me here
(of all places)
in the shadows
in the light
in
your heart.
and if I had known this was even
(illogically, stupendously)
possible, I might have never
(ever, ever)
wandered into this.
somehow, you defy everything I know
and in the blinding light
(of love?)
I feel the coldness of night
creep over me, frost my bones
chill my
thumping
choking
sputtering
trembling
heart
full of your poisonous
words
stares
glances
smiles
and I feel them
jab
shift
tumble
with every step out of this
dark
damp
place.
and I feel these
cold
rusted
metallic
chains rattle together
and pull me back to my anchor
scrabbling fingers pull and tear at them
to pull me loose
but they touch feverish skin
until I realize that
there
was
no
prison
and I've struggled so hard against
(myself.)
but maybe
(never)
I miss you,
when I think of what you've always been
to me,
and maybe
(a little)
I still wish I was trapped there,
where I cast myself,
in your light's shadow,
and maybe
(always)
I will love you.
