Description
you need notbreathe or bloom
for anyone
but yourself
love you are
already
the brightest
thing in my life
light
waiting for light
but I know how the cold
settles in
brittling bones
and glaciating
skin
how it sometimes feels like
you'll never know warmth again
leaving you lost
in daze
opacifying gaze
with a scrim of
ice
across your
eyes
like frosted glass
love let me
stay close
until it's
passed Β
and though I can not
sing you
any nearer
to daylight
nor hold back
the black
I will hold you
through the night
I will
sit with you
in the darkness
for as long
as it may
last

Thanks very much. As I don't use punctuation in most of my poems,
the line breaks and spacing are definitely meant to map the sound
and flow of the piece.

At times Iβm refered to as The Sister of Edgar Allan Poe, for my writing mostly dark, etc I know that when you write you are freeing yourself from your sadness or any emotion writing is an outlet as you write that itβs out of your system and that pain you once had is freed from your soul.. you feel better when you allow yourself to have writing as a outlet of your soul
