Me? Writing poetry? Yes!
My latest work (untitled):
Oh my love
It is is your soul that I find my religion
Stardust lies in the crooks of your skin
And the sun itself shines within your eyes
Were you a goddess,
I would lay upon your altar
Clothed in soft silk and fine jewels
Smooth stone warm on my back
Lilacs and ferns ‘round my neck
An offering fit for your divinity
Golden sunlight floods your temple as the sun rises above
You descend
And though my eyes burn, I could not look away
Were you a goddess,
I would be your priestess
Humble and holy, clean my hands of the blood before I touch your skin
Fill your temple with all things soft and sacred
A mere distraction from what lies within me
Had I the power, I’d grant you your every desire
Turn glorious empires and vast mountains to mere dust
Bring the whole world to its knees
Bloody and bruised before you
So they may revel in your glory as I do
Forgive me, darling
For whatever I touch rots beneath my palm
Everything I love, I destroy
Devotion and obsession
Are they so different after all?
