Re-live
Sometimes
it only takes one
not two
to love.
sometimes it only
takes that one
to elevate
to surrender.
sometimes it only
takes that one
to keep loving
to keep living
and dreaming.
Sometimes
all that encompasses love
can be found all in one person
where the person
doesn’t need another
to complete the infinite flow of love.
I don’t need another
to cling to
to rescue me
to devour me
I don’t need another
too parasitic
too wasteful
too nasty.
Sometimes
it only takes one
and that one I will be.
For I am free
and they can’t believe it.
sometimes it only takes one
to resurrect
the dead
to place me back
in my comfy bed
I never sleep without a blanket
and that morning I awoke
to none
but was strangled
with a sheet instead
my shirt was inside out
and hair up
when I went to sleep with
the shirt right side out
and hair down.
you look at others
as they sleep
so innocent and peaceful
and you want to ruin that for them
because you can’t find peace
you can’t find the one
but darling,
I will stare right back at you
until the day I die
I will re-live my murder
until I see you cry
and then have no remorse.
See ya later.
