Out Of The Dark

I have never been this hurt
it is an inside fleshy wound.
Deep within the resounding nervous system
hidden beyond the white blood cells
strangely sticking to my ribs.
Dig it out
take away the rot from the inside.
Bring sleep to me in droves
and wine to dizzy the pain.
Soft touches
turning into hungry need
desire spins the room
the fire makes me bleed.
The words dance naked
spinning within the cobwebs of my mind
echoing dangerously in my eyes
my lips part only minimally
in order to suck in the sweet air.
Make a tourniquet
place it around my heart
cinch it tighter, the winch you hold
the hurt will kill the pain
the blood will run pure
and I will heal.
