Early morning, in the quietness of my mind,<\/p>\n
I see your luring light as the yellow lines pull me towards you.<\/p>\n
Still relishing in my unvarnished thoughts of you,<\/p>\n
pure<\/p>\n
honest<\/p>\n
The leftover night air begins to lift as I try to wrap this goodness around me.<\/p>\n
As I get closer<\/p>\n
a waxing storm stirs,<\/p>\n
the debris within me comes rushing,<\/p>\n
thoughts I haven’t seen in months rattle against me.<\/p>\n
Sirens blare, I brace myself, becoming uprooted, my branches now bare,<\/p>\n
this torrential storm of emotions pulls me down, tears at my clothes, tangles my hair, gnashes my skin.<\/p>\n
You just stand there, shining your yellow eyes on me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
