My Hell

byJhenn©

Wind weeping through the
Slamming blinds
Waking me

A peek at the clock
Three fifty two
I rise

The cold metal of the blinds
Burning
My hand struggling to close
The window

I turn to tell you
Ephemeral instinct
My heart elapsed

Stumbling into bed
Into sudden sleep
Willful surrender

Dawn unfolds
Stagger through morning
Numb
Fuck, I say

My lips encircle
The cigarette
Your voice already
En masse

Mirror
Holed Visage Clouded
By steam

Cleansed of the
Night
Apply the mask

Today harder
Than last
