Your smile could charm the lies of snakes that filter through clenched teeth, they slither and wrap around my ear, tainting my white cloud of thoughts with sticky tar. It oozed around, coating it.
I laughed when you sprinkled powdered sugar over it, calling it candy.
Oh boy,
I swallowed it whole and licked my fingers clean.

Retrospection
We beg for mercy,
to be pardoned
of a sin not of
our own volition;
to escape what
haunts the mind
through dreams
and distorted images.
There is an escape,
but it seems far-fetched,
and it only leads
to further damnation.
Breaking the silence
with a subtle scream;
still the heart is
shattered with memories.

Discern
I can take
a hint without
taking offense,
without affecting
my sense of self,
but it's so hard
to tell who is real.

Contrition
Your expression is
one of sincere regret.
Has your light already
faded to darkness?
Let the sorrow that
dwells within your heart
linger outside the soul.
