your distance is the obsession
of my mistake, my walk
around your tastefully pie skin.

the way your eyes stare,
but your thoughts are yours,
private and steeled with your shadow.

this isn’t for love,
this isn’t for beauty,
its my imagination and stupidity
that rides my fingers through my hair.

your innate voice,
an accent that shivers
the winds cackle
and ties my hands and feet
with the tongue of the rope
tuseling my skin with a force
of genuinity,

your words become something more,
as if they change course
and become sentences,
simmering their way into stories.

such a fool,
i am a sin of black,
a night that won’t hold my hand.

Beautiful poem. Were you writing for a yafa(googled and found out that it was a brand name for pen). How interesting and right.
and I love the ending.... profound.
Everything has a voice.
Love this one.
