The Widow

She won't stop screaming. She won't let me hold her.
She's so far gone, that she's been reduced to this.

Her skin is scarred but it still bleeds.

Eyes are black from decay. Her body.

Constantly decaying.

Her jaw unhinges and she screams.

Long, deep, as if she could vomit out the pain, heart poisoning.

She wears the remainder of a white dress in memory of who she was.

 She wants the pain to end, she wants to end, but still she lives on,

Zombified inside of me.

She loves the same, as she always has, and always will,

And it's killing me. He's gone.

And she won't stop screaming.

Trust

It all turns to fear,

the love that never dies is locked inside.

I am sent spinning when we dance,

velocity drives me into the ground.

We can't dance anymore,

until I can trust you with my hands.
