#shadowed words

I used to pray for light, When it was the dark, That protected me. Below the nadir, At the heart of midnight’s lakeside dreams.

I discover him, Through his songs and art. I discover him, And his burdened heart. He tells me a truth, That feels like a lie. And every confession of attraction, Feels like goodbye.

I’m stepping away. There’s no place that is safe, Anymore. Our shadows, Burned, By the sun, Coming over the horizon.

Avoidant-attachment. Irrefutable entrapment. He promised me hope, And delivered disappointment. And this shit should be a crime, But it’s just a sign of the times.

The man thinks himself a king. The man thinks himself a gift to women. The man is nothing but a lost boy, With a hard dick, And an ego, That’s fractured beyond repair.

My womb is fertile, While my resistance is futile. My body is headless, So why is my mind still so restless?

And I used to pray for light, But this is not of His creation. All that was Divine, Left us behind, Without hesitation.
