A Passenger

The brakes are cut and knuckles can blanch 

 on the staunch grip that careens towards something

neither here nor there nor in-between

unsure as I am

Your windows are tinted and the keys to your thoughts

lay not in my pocket, but your own

Secrecy can breed uncertainty

in teeming maladies within

So SCREAM for me to save you

if eyes trembling with the radiance of a mind witnessing its last lunacy 

go out like headlights plunged into the river's rocky maw

Our final moments could be intimate

like they were the firmament's parting gift

to an abundance of hungry water below

and to a God not sated

only silence

"secrecy can breed uncertainty in teeming maladies within" I just love this bit it's so powerful and the word "maladies" just makes me want to dig into those words deeper , secrets in a relationship of any kind will only pull it down. a wonderful piece of art , bravo XD XD XD XD
