Always

The Unattainable

I'm here

Scarred

And left needing

More than this hurt

More than this fear

I'd kneel before you

As your supplicant

But your face is stone

And there's no penace, no peace.

When will my desire for you

Stop pulsing through me?

Pulling and ripping

Destroying me from the inside out?

I bleed for you

And live in pain.

There's nothing

That feels right

Or real anymore

I turn the lights off

Seeking a place

Within my mind

Where the biting demons

Of love

Sleep far from my heart

The heart that's been stripped, scoured, and bruised.

A place-

where there's some reprieve from pain

and loving the unattainable.
