Shadow's Daughter

Shadow's Daughter

“Our” Sacrifice She demanded that I cut open

“Our” Sacrifice

She demanded that I cut open my shell
and let drip my burning soul
onto her frigid altar

The steam, she said, that arises
from such a conflagration
would rekindle that imaginary, burning, thing
that we thought we had lost
so long ago
She hands me the knife,
for no sacrifice is sacred
unless done by one’s own hand

We both held our breath
as I raised the blade to Our neck

And once again, as before
the sharp edge pierces only her

And she bleeds

And I, with impassive serenity,
walk away, as I have before
to leave her (bleeding out)

Her wounds will heal,
though I will provide no aide

So the scars: puckered, pulsating and fierce
shall remain

She will live, that we may play
this game, once again

A Light Coating

A Light Coating

I got demons on the inside telling me attack Demon

I got demons on the inside telling me attack
Demons on the outside riding on my back
Angels keep on falling tryna keep my ass on track
But my angels lack the gumption so they let me fade to black
They are not the reason this is not their fault
Sometimes I keep my feelings locked inside my vault
When I pull them out people seem to be appalled
So I gotta put them back in and switch to my default
The last time it was all good I really can’t recall
They say to keep your pride but that comes before the fall
They say if I need help all I gotta do is call
But when I make the call they say they can’t help at all so
They ask me if I love them, I keep them so enthralled
They ask me for my love but first I have to make them crawl
Sometimes I get so caught up I forget that it’s all false
It’s just another memory that plagues this empty hall

In an empty hallway, I let my mental float
Hoping that it reaches a so much better coast
I ask my fading hopes for the things I want the most
But it’s just an empty hallway, quiet as a ghost

On Love (Refrain)

Oft quoted poet
You can have those summer days

I cherish the darkness and the secrecy
Of a black-blue night

When you can see right through
Light's absence

Eyes reflecting eyes
Reflecting eyes

To one who asked how
Could forever be in a glance

Gift-wrapped soul
Ribbons of silver and black

For you

Unlike harmonizing angels
And the basic nature of god itself

More like raucous
Sometimes annoying

Your laugh
I would not trade

For beads or lands
Never a part without the whole

Struggling to be deeper
Than ancient minds

Or blood diamond mines
Trying to express

What I already understand

Calling the essence
Of what makes me a man

Wrap and trap the universe
Into a locket

Gently clasped
By somewhat nervous hands

Around your neck
Noose of forever

Pardon platitude
We die

Barnes, Silencio. "On Love (Refrain)." Eternal Figments of Reality.
