Cave

I don't want to hear
someday words
against dank cave walls
dripping excuses
into dark pools
into dark fools

dreams collect
in the crevices
glowing with hope
until smothered by now
by wait
by hide

My skin aches for light
etching the stain
of lies from the dermis
of our love

Once again the very creative Alessia pulls off some impressively abstract work on this piece, pulling us out of the dank underbelly of life's lies to bring life's loves into the brilliant light of truth.

I come across a poem that makes me catch my breath. I just did. Wonderfully crafted.

Been there as well, but was never able to be this articulate about it.
