Dark

Ive seen the world's dark
places.

restaurant corners, dirty sheds,
bathtub drains, and things
I'd rather not say...

these dark places will take you,
burn you like the hearth of my eyes,
it can hurt, force in
your pulsing body
and rip out the center
of what you call heart.

mountains are moved
in the direction of the pacific.
and I have lost you,
and you have lost me.

Search for what is right,
search for eyes in the mirror,
search, your whole life
search.

and what do I find?

Your light.
