To HerA Poem by JavanSomething I wrote while thinking about the one I love.I have a dark side. It breathes black flame laced with crimson and as it flies through my mind it’s jagged claws scratch deep welts through my happiest memories. It frightens the kind words from my lips and twists my actions into those of it’s own image. It sets fire to my thoughts. Viscous, blazing infernos that tear through everything I am that I want or ever will be. And she sits in the middle of those flames, untouched by their rage, calm and unafraid. She walks through the gaps in my personality like a staircase. Deeper down she walks, deeper into the cave where it sleeps. And it sees her. And she sees it, and doesn't flinch. And she calms it. She soothes it with her beauty and silences it’s flames with her words. She soothes it, and it sleeps. © 2013 JavanReviews
