A Ghost of You

Time won’t heal this scar –
I’m your scattered ruin.
Your touch, how much
‘fore your scent leaves my
waking sleep and dreams.
Take your weedy walk –
I’m your scattered ruin.
Time won’t heal some scars.

      Isn’t she just the most icy-cold, unsettling, unhinged, beauty!

    V oices from within, escape them not
    A ccept your scar, for it remains
    N igh is the time of Contempt
    T rees said to men
    A morphous your pain is no more

    B eldam as an lecherous erinye
    L ight’s death
    A rcane
    C aterwaul my song
    K iss my lips and die

      I don’t know who that is, Roland. I often think I’m the only person in the northern hemisphere who’s not subscribed to Netflix. I do adore that poem on your site today.
