Happened To You

i happened Free-Zone

not to hunt

for coercion or collision

i came to begin

again, without a diet of another

no one to occupy

just myself tonight to slight

yet in the euthenics

of smokers in their alcoholic snares,

in the hotch potch laughter

of girth-guised relics

i notice you

sang-froid solution

against the shriven wall

your own tempered poison in hand

eyes teaching me

how to thaw my disregard

lips in a cruising smile

specific for my purchase

but i was here to forget

the imbrications of lies

the pastlife of being bitten

twice fried

still notice you noticing me

grant no one contours

contiguous to friendship,

not now

on a night of nursing

nut-hatched hurts

when i'm not searching,

i came to drink

with archives of broken vows

my porcelain heart breaks

each crack - a lie

each bruise - a tear

each cut - the cackle

of frozen, deceptive hosts

whom i allowed

assuage...

 

tonight i'm learned

my turn

to snick and sneer

my turn to steer...

they all want me,

yet you are there:

smooth warning,

solid notions of promise

that warrants a platform

and i found myself

migrating...

 

i happened to you

in your nascent nape

and in my moment of molten need

i pray

for more than persuasive phantasms

rather for overlapping warmth / joy

beautiful duration

and that thing most token

defined by trust and emotion

but not often spoken:

L

O

V

"the imbrications of lies
the pastlife of being bitten
twice fried" I like these lines right here, I like your write, wonderfully put together.
