dusk till dawn

by - April 13, 2020


when the sun sets, you then come out
i would have said ‘i missed you’, but i don’t think i was allowed

with my hand in yours, into the closet we went
dusk till dawn, we had our time well spent

through a hug, you engulfed this poor soul
bleeding and battered, with multiple hole

you told me, you loved seeing me like this
not the happy-go-lucky my friends used to miss

of course, it is acceptance that I craved
for happiness was never something you could gave

            they said, be aware of the monster under the bed
            but what am I to do with the one living in my head

            it comes out only when it’s dark
            and gone when the sun starts to spark.

p/s: yes yes another twist ;)))
