Wishing for long nights
To stay with me forever
I hide in the dark
.
(On the compulsion to hide from the world.)
bury yourself / in hidden places /
every forceful exhale / purging doubts /
…
Hidden in our thoughts
So much love must remain
Unseen and unheard
Silent confessions
These, too, fated to be lost
Alone in the dark
I curl myself tight
In my recovery bed
Finding comfort here
This tiny, soft space
Like a child’s old blanket
Where I seek healing
Fading to nothing
The desire to disappear
Fulfilled upon sleep
… But then
I think of them seeing me from the inside out
I imagine their mind’s fingers combing the strands tangled in my shallows
…
