I See You

Silence wraps you in Her violet arms

Protects you from the light.

You relish Her mysterious charms

Then thwart the Sun's cruel blight.

Though lonely, you will not commit

To sheer Transparency.

You try your best not to admit

To your Despondency.

Try as I might, I cannot yield  

To one I cannot know.

I cannot penetrate the shield.

Your Truths- they rarely show

But when I feel your yearning touch,

When sleep weakens your hold,

Your earnestness releases such

A vulnerable gold.

To glance upon the beating heart
Within your hazy cloak,
Ensures me I am not to part
With the fire that you toke.

Secret Lover

It's being out on a stormy day,

Static pinching through humid air,

Heaviness crushing my fragile lungs

As you hit w the force of 100 tides

You transfer your pulse w every touch

Cause lightning strikes within my veins

I cry for relief, as you set me aflame

Energy bursting through every cell

And the moment you finally crash into me?

Tornadoes hurl their greatest blows

Uprooting my home, invading my mind,

Destroying any semblance of control

But I yield to the extirpation-

Embrace it with maddening depravity.
Topple the ramparts of my being!

Leave me breathless in your wake!

And when we're through I realize

This is my chance for something new,

Until I rebuild, only to find

Everything remains just as it was...
