If my mind is ever present

and my solitude's a friend,

dark ideas lead to actions

darker actions, towards a trend;

~

a stoic calm is my exterior

never, ever break a sweat,

in the hollow of my inner being

I've this appetite to whet.

~

Within the chasm where my soul goes

a dank pulsating yearns to start,

tuning out the distant conscience

because I haven't any heart;

~

half the time I am the predator

in the darkness after day,

daylight time I am more subtle

hoarse surround
glisten as you swallow
your diver dive
sliding through the horror

fracture me
curled you asked
basking in watery
light
and you wept

I could hear the traffic
jangled and bold
flashs like broken bone
this pain that eats me

Devoured
and a kiss
tingle dance

you sigh
the black depth
pupil wide

across the great divide
you slip into
Lah lah Land

barefoot and naked
and the snows fall
like broken wishs
from a ravaged heaven

There you are
A moment ago you wasn’t there.
Then as if out of nowhere you came
Making this grand entrance into my life.
Like an imp, a gnome
Like little Miss nobody who never was
But always were.
From the very first time we got connected
you have hunted me
chased me as if I was a renegade
like a maroon I dwelt in the inner most part of the forest
even with look-outs barriers and fortifications
you raced to my heart…to my core
these defences no match for your determination
for there you had to be….
