[POEM]: Darkness
Hidden away She figures it’s not her time yet To show him all her scars And secrets The endless ink that spills from her skin The drops of rain she tastes on her tongue He sees her there Lying like it’s her native language Yet he knows that there’s something else there To her That he hasn’t seen yet A darkness that covers her Light She’s swallowed up by heaviness Dark So dark. -k.h. an…
Darkness
Hidden away
She figures it's not her time yet
To show him all her scars
And secrets
The endless ink that spills from her skin
The drops of rain she tastes on her tongue
He sees her there
Lying like it's her native language
Yet he knows that there's something else there
To her
That he hasn't seen yet
A darkness that covers her
Light
She's swallowed up by heaviness
Dark
So dark.
Just a poem I was inspired to write. Inspired by lyrics, other poetry and television shows. -K.
“I know I’m probably better off on my own than loving a man who didn’t know what he had when he had it. And I see the permanent damage you’ve done to me. Never again.” - Maya about Lucas (off-and-on thoughts/feelings)
