you lured me with your darkness
drawn in like a siren
choked away the light from my eyes
hollow was your only gift
given freely. with intent.
delivering the thrust of your blow
centered through my soul
devastating and complete
a beautiful mess
i returned to you uninvited
unasked, even worse
for more of the same enrichment
to tread on the threshold of my hope
to fulfill you
knowing no yield would come
no comfort proffered
unsettled and done
a beautiful mess
i'm not getting tired
your darkest boughs
convinced me from the start
to live without you no life at all
lying in your shadow
warmed within its cast
spreading over me
a beautiful mess
