i began to bleed before any blow occurred.
provoked, my own insanity, my restlessness.
i had cleaned my place for you in hopes of having you here.
i see now that i am exempt from love.
i am the darkest monster, the ugliest creature.
i am without failing, the most terrible thing.
my hatred springs and bursts and boldly consumes.
my palms are known mirrors of images doomed.
blood stained, lips bathe and gather.
your eyes soft dark brown, mute.
your hair rather, a traveler’s dune.
and i’ve sank, sank beneath the blue surface brood.
