Stolen Light

Blurry dreams that can’t replace The darkest nightmares of your face Another dying word untold Replaced by fear in hateful mould The lustful way I burned my skin Upon the alter of your sins The gazing truth that pierced my heart The way you smiled now torn apart And everything you ever were The cold pretence of loving care A black widow beneath the sheets My poisoned soul makes you complete Your icy touch has broken me Draining my vitality All that’s left in love and hate Are deadly dreams I can’t sedate As I crawl through all your games My shattered mirror shares my pain And as I look into my mind I see your darkness in my eyes

I was gone and did not read any poetry the past weekend. So I am trying to get some read today. I am pleased that yours is among what I have read today and I have enjoyed reading it. I hope you have a wonderful week filled with inspiration Ian. Love, Carol
