Her.

Long time no blog!
I wanted to share a little poem I wrote today in class.
Hope you enjoy!


She has the ocean in her eyes
can't you see?
Or do you have your fingers to tightly
laced across
the only bridge you have to her world
She's offering her soul to you on a silver platter
So why do you pull your veil
so tight
tending to your teacup
try not to clink your plate
awake the demons that you to tenderly
hide

She has the trees in her voice
can't you tell?
her fluttering tongue speaking
patterns old and worn
grasping wind hoping
it would pull you towards
the captivity of her heart
but you still push,
your palms up in defense
because you can't handle being intoxicated
by the one dose of medicine that could
numb your aching branches

her.
