Truth Shown By Night

Auburn hair rest on exposed back

slightly waving curves along the spine

dull is the hazel glancing sight placed

where sapphire eyes reigned smiling



The chocolate stars covering my limbs

simple grasp of freckled mayhem

fair is the face ever so weeping

each night with tears racing of loneliness



Lying awake only to grieve for nothing

pleading to the moon with embers glowing

darkness take my light with fated hands

fancying a life so untouched



From my immortal barren nights

springs the blood of lovers fictional

ever knowing the destiny left at my feet

cursed with seclusion, could it really be truth?

Megan,
Oh, yes, it is true, all too true, and minions experience the same. I like the lack of connecting articles, it conveys spurt of thought, immediacy. Good work.
