Into the Never

The title poem to my book Into the Never

You brought sunshine and rain into my world,

You saw something in me that no one else could

You taught me how to breathe again

And then you stole my breath away

 

I fell into you

The other half of me separated by flesh and bone

Our bodies entwined but never close enough

Souls longing to touch between tender kisses shared

 

Too slowly I saw the pain in you the world had caused

Innocence stolen too young

The pain buried deep into the dark

A broken shard of glass cutting you up inside

 

But no matter how deep you dig the hole

It will never be deep enough

You cannot bury the pain

Always needing someone else to beat the bad out of you

 

And so you run

Descending into darkness

Numbing the love we shared by denying your soul

As you disappear into the never

Lovely. Can't wait to read the book.

Seriously sometimes when I read your work I feel like you opened my soul and wrote down what you saw.
