The Prayer




The grief that takes your hope is despair,

I pray I never treat you like your life can have sums,
I pray I never put a pricetag on your happiness,
I pray I never walk the path of the world that leads me away from you,
I pray my love for you is without conditions,
I pray I never leave you at my gate crying,
or knock at my door and leave you unanswered,
I pray I never side with your enemy,
I pray my heart is home enough for you,
I pray you never doubt my love for you is true,
I pray I never have to say "I'm sorry for hurting you"
I pray I never give you despair...
I pray I can love you like I was never loved.

Decay 2018

Painting by Lucy Harding I'm so mad at myself  That despite the foul stench of decay  That I'm emanating I'll still choose you  My murderer  Without thinking  From a heart not beating  Because of you  I'll still choose you Death over life Without you  Over me My lover. In death.  You.
