I am Bexley: Love in the night chapter 22
The night has always had a sacred quality to me yet it has a strange sense of inbalance in how we perceive it. A shadow of a tree can appear like a sleeking boogie man. A creak of a bough is a creature crying out in the darkness. A raccoon hiding under a rotting wood looks like a feral monster ready to pounce.

Secret Admirer
Every night at midnight, the purple clouds came out to dance with the blushing sky. The blush turns orange and pink. It seeps into my very soul, where I feel I am sinking. Sinking and falling.

All the poems are from you
I feel idiotic, I don’t know what to do Every single time I read a poem I think it’s from you Oh I know, it’s not really true

First time i remember being invited to be invisible
why does the poet want to wreak havoc on the world with their most wretched feelings? Why does the poet dream of the horrors of the world etched across their vision like a giant wall being scratched out?
