love’s fear

WORDS:

after you shut the light out
cry with the sun and lament at the moon
love is breaking and breath-taking
let us take back our disrespect
we will not watch the brokenness in our reverence
these flailing hearts now beat slow realising that bliss casts itself over our shadows.
when the three words blow over our coffins
we died making something out of nothing
but the dreams make into a wreath
the petals whisper our secrets
beneath let us shut out their babble
till silence begins to unravel
hold the bad memories
and gloss not the nightmares
eyes watching with blank stares
we are dying in love’s fears.
