shame scars against ardor

Posted 5:35 PM by AD in Labels:




Across Continents

Through the frame
your arms, elbow, hand, cheek,

feet lightly bent,

the slightest touch unsettled you.

Betrayal

Modesty is a lesson our bodies bear shame
shapes her breast this lump in the body scars
the heart a secret best suffered against
itself an excess concealed with such ardor.


~


Shut

that mouth that face that story of a fall of a voice of lips.

Years later, bruises blossom bright purple, hidden, isolated.
