Delighted by lies and murdered by truth,
The sole lover’s solstice reaches…
For the rotting soul…
Snug in the cheerful body of the damned,
And within the hands of a dead love,
Shattered, to kill, from youth.

The author's comments:
Poems eventually come onto the paper after weeks of festering emotions or ideas.. rather than specifically trying to create a clear, concise idea, its more an image and words that convey a feeling. not necessarily to your head, but to your soul... to your emotions.
