Lover of words
By darkendomme
 This pen between guilty finger tips bleeds
with each write. Emotions tongue tasting and telling on me and my love
for my own hypocrisy. I should not love in this way of written adultery,
yet it's existence is stitched and woven through my broken heart. The yearning
of disappearing distances commence with each word he loves unto me.
The "what if's" rapes my mind, removing the loneliness once obedient
and now
signatures ghostly initials upon my tanned skin.
​I weather my confusion of morals and upbringing of which I no longer
feel its pulse through my inked veins. Here I stand beneath gray
clouds,
as it sheers these mountains of reminders surrounding our imprisoned truth.
Drops of red ink descend upon my mind from darkened skies, streaming
to
my heart and flooding on submissive paper. In cursive these binds slowly
unravel, straddled between wet words and violent scenes where latex preferences
and love of the darker sort are accepted.
​
Salty blotches silently screams its voice of rejected love amongst the
scriptures. Abominations we are, fornicating on letters lubed with lust
and coveting what belongs to another. My pen glides on your lap
of ecru
pages, leaving my essence upon you and staining your craved nostrils. Altruistically,
I curse your mind and sleep with my haunt, as you have done unto
my own
belonging. Now, as I lay in my bed beside my righteousness, I
think
only of  the sin I now love and its approach to claim and murder
my willing
heart each day I fall. We prep for the war to come when all must end within
reality's jealous boundaries. Till then, we hypocrite in love, not fearing
the fires created for the unrighteous such as ourselves and I am content
to burn in that familiar embrace spoken of so many times, if your words hold
true to only me and remain in its most favored place.

Pensive and beautiful. My mind melted into this as I read on and upon finishing left me aware of the silence around me and lost in contemplation. Thank you. I look forward to checking out more of your work as this is my first time stumbling upon you.
