POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Beneath the Tide
I see you rising in the waves,
A silent hymn, a call to caves.
You pull the anchor from my chest,
A slow descent, a dream of rest.
Each heartbeat drowns beneath your gaze,
A siren song, a violet haze.
And I am weightless, sinking lower,
Your voice, the tide; I can’t grow colder.
Pull me under—
Break my name.
Fill my lungs with
Endless flame.
The surface fades; I won’t survive,
But I’m alive beneath the tide.
Your hands are threads of liquid steel,
They twist, they bind, they make me kneel.

Parasite
You sink your teeth into my spine,
A hunger endless, yet divine.
I feel you crawling through my veins,
A whispered curse I can’t contain.
You are the ache that pulls me close,
The kind of love that hurts the most.
And every breath feeds your desire,
I’m just the host; you’re the fire.
Drain me—
Take what you need.
Leave me hollow,
Let me bleed.
Your love, a wound I can’t escape,
A parasite I learn to crave.
I tried to carve you from my skin,
But every cut let you back in.
You leave your marks...
A hunger endless, yet divine.
I feel you crawling through my veins,
A whispered curse I can’t contain.
You are the ache that pulls me close,
The kind of love that hurts the most.
And every breath feeds your desire,
I’m just the host; you’re the fire.
Drain me—
Take what you need.
Leave me hollow,
Let me bleed.
Your love, a wound I can’t escape,
A parasite I learn to crave.
I tried to carve you from my skin,
But every cut let you back in.
You leave your marks...

Hollow Crown
I feel your weight upon my chest,
A hollow crown I can't contest.
You speak in tongues I almost know,
A language carved in undertow.
Each step I take is backwards now,
Your shadow bends, I learn to bow.
And I am tethered to the ache,
A fragile thread I dare not break.
Drag me down where your kingdom starts,
Bury me beneath your heart.
Lay your claim, tear my temple down,
Crown me with your hollow crown.
Let the void seep into my veins,
'Til nothing but your will remains.
Your hands are cold but so alive, ...
A hollow crown I can't contest.
You speak in tongues I almost know,
A language carved in undertow.
Each step I take is backwards now,
Your shadow bends, I learn to bow.
And I am tethered to the ache,
A fragile thread I dare not break.
Drag me down where your kingdom starts,
Bury me beneath your heart.
Lay your claim, tear my temple down,
Crown me with your hollow crown.
Let the void seep into my veins,
'Til nothing but your will remains.
Your hands are cold but so alive, ...

Threadbare
I wear you like a second skin,
A wound that whispers from within.
You move in shadows, cold and deep,
An ache that steals what I can keep.
Your name is written on my bones,
A curse I carry, not my own.
And I can feel you pulling tighter,
A threadbare soul, a fading fighter.
Unravel me—
Let me come undone.
Leave me hollow,
Underneath your sun.
This fragile thread,
Frays with every breath.
Unravel me—
I'll be yours in death.
Your silence drowns the light of day,
A void where promises decay. ...

Eclipseing Me
Your whispers fill the hollow air,
A hymn that binds, a wordless snare.
You’re not a god, but I kneel still,
A shadow draped in quiet will.
Your touch is poison laced in gold,
A promise ancient, silent, cold.
And I am nothing—just a vessel,
Your voice, a hymn I dare not wrestle.
Take me—
Unmake me—
Let the void flood my veins,
'Til the silence becomes my name.
Shape me—
Erase me—
Every thought you claim as your own,
And I fall into you, alone.
I trace the lines you carved in me,
A map of...
