I take the first step out into the light. It can be so blinding and bright.
Finding my focus to ground me. Reaching for that inner light, I feel the darkness waiting in its silence for you to appear.
its harder to find the eyes that used to watch me. That turned me into quivering prey. You left me with the ghost of you, drumming your rhythm into my heart beat so that they aligned.
A connection that began to ground me, a vibe that brought reality in front of my eyes. There was what I thought was your honesty but your truth sat within your lie.
I don’t think you meant to deceive me, I think life pulled you back in its side. You shared pieces of you easily verified so I didn’t think I was a game to you I thought I could be part of the darkness you are forced to hide.
You claimed I connected to the beast within you, that I stroked its fur with our connection and fell to my knees to show you my submission. Predator chases prey, prey you told to hide. You said that you found me, but this babygirl only found the ghost of you that you left behind.
You left me with your secrets, ones I’ll never tell. I said good morning to you and nothing in return. Ghosts appear out of thin air, will I find you there?
