a slow shadow

resentment fills the cage
i locked myself in
beckon the demons to take hold
an admission of guilt
a slow shadow burns through my bones
no will to leave
no one to blame
i am the inmate and the judge
i built the cell and burned the key
i am a violet under glass
withered and choking on display
retching
wilting
burning
the shadow spreads on
consuming us all
retch wilt burn through my fucking bones
i resign to you

a silent daughter

i want to be reborn
a dove from the eagles ashes
tear my skin off at the seams of my scars
cleanse this body of mine
im sick from the words on my tongue
deep and fevered
im sorry
i am not the sun
im a silent daughter
suffering the breaths of man
and longing for the grace of women
under my skin im crying
breaths of uncertainty felt deep in my bones
im afraid
idle
staring at the walls
im stagnant
im not sure who i am
if not the man i was raised to be
its not me
