Recrudence
guess subconsciously...
we must've found a way to hold on
while we were both roped off
by facsimiles of love
as my witch...your warlock
engaged in insidious acts of possession
...a transgressions of boundaries
sacrilegious...
but through it all..
our sacredness weathered within undercurrents
we stayed tethered in providence
...our here and now serving as
self evidence of....
...providential elasticity
he brought out the best in me...for a minute
...until he didn't
got me on lock...then wandered off
leaving me in limbo
constantly wondering...where did he go
overthinking & second guessing
what did I do wrong
no longer a prized possession
blamed for my own pain
while he played me like a master
crowding me
into the depths of my own darkness
but when push came & I shoved
dusting off my fighting gloves
...& retreated
the only smart option...my arsenal was depleted
weapons aren't always necessary
I gifted myself with my departure
reclaiming my sovereignty
& retaining the best of me
turns out I never lost it
filters gone & with perfect clarity
taking the lesson...I started walking
finding you again along the journey
carrying your own story...
a story which got kinda gory
when I felt the movement of her possession
left me second guessing myself
as she crawled behind my most sacred beliefs
pretending to agree...
while seeking to reverse engineer me
steer me...leer me into her lair..away from family
her fingers stroking through my hair...
scalping me...with sex magik and candlelight
hazing me..glazing me...
to the texture of her desires disguised as love...
she wanted me to revel in the eccentricities of her teachings
overreaching in her presumptuousness
trying to fuck me into an invisible cuckhold
top me from the bottom
never was it her goal to appreciate me
at a wholistic level...a whole human
who was sovereign long before she showed up
a man who felt true compassion in its purity
removing the obscurity of a tainted heart
always clear...always near
even through the muck of pandemic bullshit
the yearning was too strong...the footprints too vivid
illuminating all that was trailblazed
in my journey back to you
our paths diverged but inevitably returned
to a space of sanctuary & honesty
a bond without bindings
who knew...
