Kim V. Poetry

Dark desires awaken
When you paint my sky.

When your colors bleed into me
And we turn this blank canvas
Into innumerable galaxies.

With just one more kiss,
I ascend into pure nirvana.
And “evil thenceforth became my good.”

Because your love
Cuts through me
Like pierced metal.

It threads through me,
Bringing all of my light and dark
Together.

For I know that “monsters are real,
Ghosts are real too.
They live inside us,
And sometimes they win.”

But you mend my past,
And stitch my way to the future.

You reshaped and remade my heart,
For you.

Just you.
Only you.
