HERE'S THE LIGHT
Here's the light
Warring it has come forth
Rusty armour shines
Ascends the fallen blade
The ragged cape is in rage
Cut to the chase, is this a dream
No, this is the dream
The coup of the light
Light, I was waiting for

BLOOM
pliant pink or the ruthless red
prickly paling or the thorn in itself
spring flattery or the hauteur sprout
emblem of beauty or the pride itself
for the queen or the knight himself
thrown at the weeds or the weed iridescent
Bloom-how'd you bloom
like a flower or as the wildflower instead

Closer.
And you will never know if the moment has passed you by.
In a second, your life is altered.
Having inhaled him, you crave a bit more. Him resting his hand on yours, tucking your hair behind your ears. A slight pinch on the nose. But you're still not scared. You look at yourself in the mirror and think that this won't leave you scarred because it doesn't have the audacity to. A gentle nudge. An arm around your waist. Your head on his shoulder. You remove the glasses he wears and look at him. Really look at him. And then you smile your most reassuring of smiles. He whispers something in your ear.
And then, a slip happens. A blur.
Your head falls back a little and it escapes your throat recklessly,the feeling of waves crashing against your throat. And it echoes throughout the house. You are damned. Everything shatters.
Everything changes.
You stop. Your hand frantically reaches your mouth. Too late. The echoes claw at your skin and you're scarred.
Your life is altered in a second.
