My life was numb living through the hours in a disconnected haze nothing to look forward to except a colourless sunrise Then you came along and with you I felt something seen and safe I felt something no longer alone It didn’t last now you’re gone but I’m no longer numb I still feelContinue reading “Burnt To Life”

Wild One (collab)
By Vintage Black and Bree Leto With a piercing stare and unquenchable appetite— I’m one of the wild ones captivatingand fierce Slowly ever so vigilantlyyou approach trying to embrace me with velvet sounds —Casting that wicked magic of a wild cat whisperer— Yet I’mnot falling prey to your taming charms Inevitably you’ll fall in lust Everything else turning to dust against my sensual verses Sweaty, playful- breathing, s l o w Will you join me when I start to lick and lay down l o w rocking my hips— begging you /in verse/ oh, please come?

The Clock
The numbers on the clock change again I watched them tick over reminding me that another minute has passed and I’m still awake I observe my staccato thoughts wondering how to quiet this frantic mind My brain talks with my anxiety about possible futures – they’re all what ifs and maybes of things that haven’t happened and I can’t control The numbers on the clock change again the one constant force in life theContinue reading “The Clock”
