Leaving You Bereft

 Leaving You Bereft 
 
Together close your eyes
and see the darkness,
for it's but a disguise
to hide your loathness.
 
Of him, him that holds lust,
the bearer of non-trust
with the face of an angel,
and you, you damned damsel.
 
Blind you fell, for him
too quickly and prostrate,
before life went dim,
him you had to truncate.
 
Just like that you grasped
at what you had left,
it may have been very rash
leaving you alone and bereft.
 
What's done is done though,
Happiness may come and go.
For what you choose to believe,
taken, leaving you dark and bereaved.
 
 

Only His

Only His
 
 
You make him laugh,
which makes him smile,
which keeps you smiling,
because he's smiling.
 
He makes you see,
which makes you tremble,
which keeps him trembling,
because you're trembling.
 
Drown your lust and sorrow,
open your arms for tomorrow,
and reach for euphoria,
your love no longer his to borrow.
 
You conjure his heart,
which causes his love,
which keeps to expand,
because his love only grows for you.
 
With each embrace,
with each touch,
comes a love to trace,
without fuss.
 
He seized your heart,
which makes you seize his,
which keeps him seized,
because you're his.
 
And only his.

The chalk taste swells under my tongue,
glides around to the back of my mouth,
dissolving instantaneously.
 
Lay still my heart slows
and my hearing alert,
to the ever so soundless night.
 
A numbness swallows my body
and my eyelids uncontrollably droop.
 
A tingling sensation in my head,
I melt even further to the surrounding sheets,
enveloping my body.
 
My heart slows to a steady beat,
with an intoxicating rhythm,
of the slow rise and fall of my chest.
 
Fighting my thoughts further
and further away from this moment,
I am almost distant enough to fly off and forget.
