what i
become,
in this
space
as i fight
in the
insomniac
hour against
my shriveling
will
it radiates outward
from my center
something akin
to peace
that static droning
in my ears, my
mind. everything
in focus
the waves of
black light
crashing within
my chest and
i flow
with it
no longer do i
impede this
darkness,
i am the
darkness
i am the
world's broken
heart
as the light
goes out of
our eyes
we stare into
the bleak distance
and behold
the darkening
enormity of
our unfinished
dream
now the
winds
tear the
blossoms
from their
homes
out in this
wilderness
amidst the
wolves
and other
beasts
i've got birds
that soar
in my heart
that scream
into the
mountains
over the trees
and above
the festering
rivers
