A Haiku; No Writing

I feel very lostNo technology can ease the pain Writing, I cannot Keep your bite, S.C. Parris

Alone

I stared into the eyes of dirt, And knew that mud would soon form within, If only they could. I turned from you, Pressed to find a colder heart, Somewhere... Somewhere deep within my own. And though I'd spilled so much blood, Times past, Decades before, This wilting strand of acceptance I held close, Haunted […]

A Poem: The Night

In these frozen hours, Haunting recollections beckon. Betwixt my sheets lies absence, Atop my breasts rests the heaviness of the night. And I am alone. A collection of thoughts?

Poem: Your Eyes

I trace the lines of your needWith the haunt of my departure. I try and see the way your eyes reject my light, My hope. Dispel it, Vanquish, All hope. There is more to this than despair, More to this than angry looks. My scent calls for your removal— A hounding thrill of a pleasure […]
