notes of dream images.


the peaceful suffocation

don't say a word
don't say
a word

(his whispers are
disconcerting
and they might be
overheard.)

his shadow
is filling
the breadth
of
my being

a grey
stare
that
strikes me down

storm clouds
absorb
the warmth
of my
eyes.

the sky darkens
but i'm not afraid
it's like a quiet
blanket
that will enfold around me

as he covets
me
relentlessly.

Really enjoyed your style of writing. I believe you are a poet who's best pieces are yet to come.

A very power packed write on the hold some men like to have on their woman. Relentless is the perfect description. You somehow make this poem very sensuous in it's suggested suffocation.

Thanks for sharing, a great read. Love the layout.
