Remedy Caught In Her Bones

The night was young,
thick floral aromas,
flooding my nose.

It didn't distract me from thought
-like I'd hope


This strong shame shelling over
the rendered heart
pulsing behind my flesh.

As i walked down curbs and crossed over ***** streets
I was distend to find something else.


Maybe the darkness shedding from my eyes,
hauled out all the glare,
from the moon,
shinning over my head.

I though I'd blame the sun,
not being able to fill the absence,
of the light I needed.


Troubled, Obscene and groggy
at best,
but my feet kept moving.
Walking to a place,
I haven't found yet.
