Imagine 

I cannot imagine what you think of me as my pulse meets the paper and the ink spills across the moonlight. 

I waged a war with false promises and wrote every letter down . Trying to cope , bathing in moonlight and staining my skin in mistakes. 

I’m a private person , or maybe I am just too week, where papers holds my strength and my pen is my hallelujah . 

I write from a internal beckoning, a raw and emotional grave. Where my spilled tears are mopped up with whiskey and my heart never gives up on anyone but me. 

There a tree of bones out front my door , where skeletons hang and ghost gather to call out my name. 

Yet I am not afraid to still stand on bending knees and bring my troubles to the sky. 

Call me hopeful or call me home, I never truly found my place here. I built my life around those I refuse to call hopeless. 

Picking up the bibles and shattering windows as I step into the light. My heart is dark but I promise you my intentions are pure . 

So as you fall into my words and believe that my words are to sharp for brittle edges, they were forged in steel and promises , and my mouth still draws the words I love you. 

One day the sun will be at my back and the warmth with rekindle sparks in a dying heart. I will never turn back so I am blinded by the light… For my future may hold some darkness but I have never said no to a fight~

  1. Beautiful imagery thrown to the mind. I just wrote a piece and it had an element of skeleton bones in the wind lulling the time for reincarnation again. I will post it Feb 9 as this is my time slot to post it. I also don’t think there is dark against light or vice versa. They only exist in mankind’s views. For me there is no dark and there is no light.

  2. This. The strength and vulnerability balanced so wonderfully.
    I presume this is inspired from personal experiences…and that last line – you’ve already won half the fight. You are a strong person. 🙂
