reflections -

I lost myself somewhere between
the gold flecks in your eyes
and swam beyond the guarded
checkpoint of tears.
Mirrored behind the lens,
a thousand scenes from your hidden life.
Your secrets, a shade darker than my own
and your desires, what I fear most
in myself.
There is a bond, a bondage, a fermentation -
yeast in a porcelain vessel, a path of longing
and longer shadows winding through bruises
and wounds before we dare
surrender to the darker darkness -
to trust to love.

I've always thought it would be interesting to look at the eroticization of dark imagery. It looks like you've beat me to the punch. This is a nice cross between gloom and doom, and romantic imagery.

Life's short. Think hard!

That hits home with me. Very dark and elegant.
Crystal clear visuals and a lot of soul in ur drop.

Keep'em coming Jenn
