Called Out Of The Dark
~TigressSky April 24, 2013~
I’ve spent my days
Here in the dark with you
I’ve been told
“Don’t go into the light”
I’ve held your hand
Like an anchor of truth
Learned your riddles and rhymes
Yet I have always been
Attracted to shiny things
Maybe more so than the words from your mouth
So let me take them to the light
They mean so much more there
I’ve trusted your grip for so long
Yet what if everything I hold onto is wrong?
Who knows
I have been in here with you for so long
The darkness has become the light
Maybe my eyes will not see
Anything new at all
But what if they do?
What if they do?

In My Mind
~TigressSky © April 17, 2013~
All of these beautiful things
The decadence of my life
Looking inside
Reflections of what?
Destruction of security
A bedlam of false achievement
Only the knowledge
Remains true.
Still, I am sheltered here
Things I need
Things I don’t remember
Things that haunt my days.
There will always be a view
(I hope) without edge
That I must keep clear
Or lose the light.
It is comfortable at times
Languidly empty
A procrastination of debris
And a wish to no longer be
Broken.

Within
~TigressSky © November 20, 2012~
Our secret remains safe
In the fog of delusion
Your words hold my heart
Deep within
I wait patiently
For your appearance
From the mist
My strong desire
To love
Keeps me
Trapped within
You play the tune
Of this disease
Ridden heart beat
Me down
To your level
I sink within
Waiting for you
To escape
Her grasp
Wrap me in more
Lies of comfort
As naked
You show me
How cheap
I am within
Take me within
Take me without
Take me away
No more loneliness
In this moment
Your arms cherish me
Not her
In this moment
I am your choice
In this moment
I sink within
The haze
Of your abundant
Lies
