Demons
find me
in the darkness
of each night
but I wake
with poetry
in my eyes
each morning

she was
like the stars
that twinkled
in the night sky
bright and mysterious
not always visible
but always there

sometimes
the words flow
like liquid
through my veins
sometimes
empty like
this vast world
without love
sometimes
bright as the sun
upon my skin
sometimes
dark and edgy
like the nights secret
but always
the truth
that lives
in the deepest
part of my fibers

I fall into
the sweet silence
of the night
darkness comes
as comfort
to my naked soul
drifting between
here and there
to the edge
and back again
the universe
has a way
of bringing me
back to you
each night
no matter where
in time we are

I must
have known you
in another
dimension
the way
the stars
fit in the sky
my soul
fits perfectly
with yours

her eyes struggle
to open
as the sun
peeks though
the broken windows
memories haunt her
to her core
but the scars
she still wears
behind glass doors
this little girl
still trapped between
these paper walls
where her secrets
still live

at times
when the world
can be
too loud
you are
the sweetest
moment of silence

as the
moon and stars
arrive to
greet the night sky
I climb inside
another space
another time
my only wish
hanging upon
the whispers
of the universe
as I await
your arrival
I dissolve
inside another dimension

her tears
were written
onto the page
stained
like ink
filling all the
empty spaces
her words
collect
one by one
as her story
starts to unfold
shhhhh listen
to the silence
only there
will you find
her truth
