Dark Poems...Cuz every good girl has a dark side




Desperation



All of the luster of a Friday afternoon

before a weekend with absolutely no obligation - gone

culminating into a bloodstained Sunday

a sleepless dark circled Monday looming overhead

God how my body yearns for You!

…deeply fascinated by Your existence

Craving so treacherous that I am led to divine madness

Clinging to anyone, anything, that can ease my burning

and nothing does….and no one comes

Alone, by reasons beyond a wild imagination

Immersed in mucky transformation

unholy made Ugly by fear and mistrust

of myself, of desire, of the fucking gravity of the words

YES

PLEASE

YES

clotting, thickening, open wound

running at the thought of wanting it

needing You,

… need

fantasizing unfelt thrusts

a face

a memory

a body’s perfume

for the sake of fate? deliberately stalking my heart’s content

intellectually running

wait!

please

i can say it……..i can say it...

please,

don’t let me go

don’t let me go

just

don’t



Marrow



She said, “We bring out the worst in each other.”

He said, “I don’t know what you mean?”

She said, “We haven’t had sex in a year.”

He said, “Are you trying to pick a fight or something?”

She said, “I’m not sure how I feel.”

He said, “Well, that isn’t my fault.”

She said, “Then I guess I’ll just leave.”

He said,
“…huh?”


After the silence comes the scream

From inside out,

Out to in again.

After the scream the shudder begins

From back to front,

Front to back again.

Grabbing fists full of senescent flesh…

Hear the bellows of unrestrained rage…

Cleaving out any memory of us…

Until only the marrow remains…
