30 April 2012
she lights her cigarette + inhales deeply
while you're standing
staring
seeing
the flames barely touch her
as the sparks fly
writhing in agony
you feel so alive
waiting for the feelings to subside
gathering your courage, your strength
you reach for her an outstretched hand
palm upwards inviting her in, to share your world to hold her as it comes crashing down
a beacon of hope
of desire
of pure elation
darkness infinitely surrounds
awakening your lost senses
unable to see you must hear
+ listen to those calling you home
