• Why or Why Not

  Why or why not, I ask,
  Embrace the stars, their song bereft?
  Like bourbon burned upon my tongue,
  I feel detached, my soul bereft.
  
  My tears, a paradox of glee,
  Cascade at every whispered word.
  
  And so I tell myself, this writer’s plea:
  “I tell myself each waking morn,
  The feelings that my heart did mourn,
  The night before’s forgotten tale.
  
  I tell myself this grand illusion,
  To soothe the aching, haunting bruise.
  I live to die, a swift collusion,
  The trinity of me, myself, and muse.”

• Everlasting Night

  In my mind’s abyss, where darkness reigns,
  I sink slowly, like quicksand’s chains.
  Uncertain of what lies below,
  I pray to a foreign God, my savior to know.

  I regret not taking the guided path,
  Instead embracing this perilous wrath.
  Familiar yet strange, this darkness surrounds,
  As I yearn to break free, with hope unbound.

  Tears cascade, like raindrops in pain,
  As I brace myself for the final campaign.
  Darkness, I defy, with all my might,
  To reclaim my light, and emerge from the night.
