Phantoms
Saw myself reflected in you
Thought I could stop my bleeding
By being your tourniquet
Tried so hard, to keep our cravings
From carving their way into consciousness
But they severed our serenity
And divorced our love from trust
Denial taught me how to lie
Found clever places
To hide from my shadow
And slip into illusion
Enchanted by envy
And enamored with vanity
Hubris led us to the ocean
Waves of euphoria
Kissed the lonely beaches
Phantoms

This is bloody beautiful. Just what I needed!
Sweet, sad, deeply moving, incisive.
