Cold Air
The words that formed and poured
from her mouth weren't exactly true,
she said what she had to.
Those words stabbed and killed
there wouldn't be any resurrection,
his heart could never beat for her again.
They were only lovers in the dark
it all faded and bled into the light.
from her mouth weren't exactly true,

Those words stabbed and killed
there wouldn't be any resurrection,
his heart could never beat for her again.
They were only lovers in the dark
it all faded and bled into the light.

The last line is epic... A poetry within poetry.. the light of eventual truth.. as it moves from the origins of it all.. starkly sharply said , as you art ev the precisely incisive poetry in all brevity.. light & love nik x

Sigh. This reminds me of something my father taught me over games of chess: if someone is your friend in the darkness but not light, then they are not your friend. That became a litmus test for me my entire life. You have such a gift of brevity and expression, Nikki. xo
