~poisonous pain~

 

carried away on a tumultuous wind
keening sadness
pouring from my heart

*

planting seeds of dismay
lovely poppies
beautiful to look at
so toxic to the soul

*

anger the only cloak I own to cover my pain
I've become poisonous
my rage hemlock deadly when tasted

*

witness the rise and fall of my dark beauty
as it undulates and changes faces
masking a dull ache
