For we are sin
You will burn
Under our most
Tender touch
Unwilling to meet
The deathly gaze
In our wild eyes
Your holy water
An elusive balm
Even as you try
You cannot pull away
For we are sin

Quiet are the echoes of the heart
Saying nothing of betrayal’s pain
I dispense with language as we part
Suffering in silence’s bitter refrain

The hunger returns, so intense I must dissociate myself from present company. In their stupidity, society would paint me a parody of a monster, a nefarious creature teetering between God and darkness.

one unbroken note
becomes a melody of dreams
perfection in its pitch
a harmony of lovers it seems
caressed by its tone
in unison we bind
passionate composition
the rhythm of lovers entwined

They were my allies once…the strange and beautiful creatures. In this otherworldly realm, they controlled my calm and chaos. I thought I found home. But the mirror does not distort, in its truth I must surrender, this world in only in my mind

Listening to Marian and Walter speak of Laura's betrothal and Walter's love for her in #TheWomanInWhite keeps reminding me of lines from a Walt Whitman poem:
"Day by day and night by night we were together,—
All else has long been forgotten by me;"
