DENIED

Now the waters run. The souls collide.

And I’m revealed as lost inside.

My hands are cold. I stall for time.

The words break up through static lines.

A grayish blur upon the day...make it go away.

 

The hemlock burns. It vipers through.

I cannot stay here without you.

It’s black and red, comes easily.

It’s part of me you’ll never see.

I wish I might, I wish I may...

 

It’s more than fascination.

It’s more than wanting everything.

It’s more than saintly patience.

It’s more than silver words and rings.

This is me and it cannot be denied.

​

It’s stronger now than it was before.

I will lock it up behind steel doors.

A plate of glass inside my head.

The flame is black, the fire dead.

The ash floats up as if to say…
