If you look really close, there in the dark.
You just might see him, a flickering spark...

Wintry hands knotted
icy tendrils mere talons...

Fall
brings forth...

Darkness lies dormant
nestled deep within...

Angry tears glistening
streaking down my face...

Tormented and sad...
remembering the love we had...

I often wonder why I'm here.
Why does everyone have a fear...

With a heavy heart
I douse words in alcohol...

Deep in my closet
behind clothes and shoes...

Words elusively step beyond reach
teasing me with avoidance as...

All is lost...
I'm going down with the sinking ship...

Love
beckons...
