Digging for Daylight

This utter silence is stone cold
There's no gaze upon the sinner
This hell has got a wicked hold
And it feels just like a winter

When I fought the darkest demons
I just fought them empty-handed
I pushed through all doubt and reason
And I nearly couldn't bear it

Why would you still demand of me
To bend my shattered knee again
Without attending to my needs
Or is it fine to just pretend

I suppose you'll answer one day
While I'm digging for some daylight
I'll be gripping all these questions
While I'm begging you for insight

Are you even up there waiting
Could you even hate me asking
Or for choosing to just let go
Of a life that's everlasting

By accepting to wield my sword
I choose to carry my own weight
I'll start to reshape my own world
While carving out a better fate

Shadows

‘When you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives.’ - Lauren Eden

copper red
the taste
another from the darkness
in shadows I wait
desperate for love
one more face
I need to feel it
to feel alive in this place
no heat
skin against my skin
it's cold and unforgiving
I'll forgive myself

Drip

darkness in the mist
light shines down from a streetlamp-
drip. drops from my hood

My Wish

you are a fire
an endless light
so guide me home
I'm yours tonight
and if I stay
I'll keep you safe
from the troubles
that make you wake
so here's my wish
for tomorrow
we'll make a list
dreams to follow
and if it takes
more than a day
we'll take our time
and that's okay
we've time to kill
more than ever
I hope it will
take forever
