Black Hole

There it is.
Push it back.
Push it away.
Ignore it.
Overcome it.
Deal with it
(By not dealing with it).
And so the smaller
And more potent
It becomes.
A black hole
Buried inside of me
Pulling with the force of its gravity
Until there is nothing left.

Some Kind of Ode

My old friend:
When will you run dry?
You are so familiar,
Some days I forget your pain.
I write to you every night,
Words unconsciously composed
In my dreams.
If only I could give you one cold shoulder
And you would disappear.
It would be a mistake, of course.
Without you
I am not me.
