You’ve let me explore

The depth of your soul

And in here.....

I found my peace

Calming the rage within

I see forever in your eyes

Where happiness

Awaits for me

And never again

I want to leave this place

This time......

I intend to stay

Never.....

To push you away

For I yearn

To build a home

Within your ocean

Filled with love and joy

And all I ask

Just pull me back to the shore

If I ever drifted once more

Resuscitate me again

With your breath

And bring back the heat

On my skin with your touch

And don't ever change

The way you love me

For this is the kind of man

I need in my life

Let’s grow.....

The flower of passion

And we’ll watch it bloom

With the fragrance of emotion

And us.....

We become the root

Of this love

Forever

-Jessa

Froth festers from the slack-jawed maw,

blathering barbaric prattle.

He babbles--

squeals, squirms, like worms, writhing till he withers while the

whip claps

with clacks,

which cracks

his skin.

Night time arrives, my waking hour, and my cage of time. I open my eyes and blink at the ceiling, knowing where this will all be going again.

Another empty dream matching the empty night in this empty room.

I stare, then I sit up. I listen to silence while silence listens back at my every thought. I lean my head against the wall. Tears form edging the edge of my waterline and I blink, letting them roll down my emotionless face.

It's weird I cry and feel nothing. I wait for the draught and lay my head back down, staring at the ceiling, waiting again for sleep to overtake.
