I have a therapist. She's been with me since birth. Watercolors on my soul. She spills black, and blue; sometimes red. Blood is to bright on the white page. I blush for the both of us.
When all is out for the caged moments, I collapse and rest. I dream in metaphors, and I taste the sweetness of her inner thigh. Tangerines and treehouses.
I wake to find her slurping on my soul, I seize her and she greets me with grief or gospel music, or obscure memories of vaginas long gone.
I read from my recently published books on my YouTube channel. They are: Sleep Always Calls, It's Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse, and Sleep Always Calls. They are available on Amazon.

This poem is daring and intimate, blending desire, memory, and the soul. The therapist becomes both guide and lover, spilling color and wildness across the speaker’s inner world. Audacious and vivid, it lingers like a dream you don’t want to end.
