Today

I saw the other side of you today

The flip side to your coin

Beneath the sparkle of joviality and passion

When we strip away the gloss of illicit corners and barely touching hands

Rinsing away the heady throws of passion and your alcoholic aftertaste

I saw your rage

The underbelly

There was no beauty in your hurricane

Only fear and anger

The constellations I once saw in your eyes turning to pitch

Maybe they were just reflections of my own

I don't think I know you anymore

I'm not sure I ever did.

Last two lines are completely extraordinary.
The whole poetry that you come up with is a shadow of your gone past that's nicely written in the glimpse of such manifested words. Looking fwd to reading you.
