Keystrokes

Your keystrokes are fire in my blood.

Let me memorize the way they press

Adoration into my skin.

Let me listen to them like rain

And find the pattern of love

Tucked underneath the pitter-patter.

Give me an audience with your words,

And let me fall asleep to the honey love

Of your keystrokes tapping in my blood.

Silver Daux

Shadowed souls, cursed magic, poetry that tangles itself in your soul and yanks out the ugly darkness from within. Maybe there's something broken in me, but it's in you too.

    I felt the energy behind this fighting for expression. These are the words that must be written no matter what.
