the sixth kyushun treasure - return of the dragon

this is long overdue. both of us know this.

here I am again, sitting on the top of the world

stars overlooking me, like guardians pressing their judgment

they know my temptation is gone now. it has been for awhile.

your presence stirred me into near madness into almost doing so,

and ever since then I was afraid to fully breathe your aroma.

that’s why I decided to kiss both of the lips, his and yours

your fangs protecting the weakness of my insecurities,

his wings allowing me to fly above them

that was before she left.

when I took the hand of The Cyclops, I got to see a utopian world

purple grass amongst the fields, red acid rain falling from the sky

smoke creeping from your lungs and out your mouth

a place where every head turn felt like nothing but a newly-spawned dream

where your deepest fantasies turn into your own and only reality.

an invincibility that felt to last so long.

but you couldn’t see the stars from there.

I think I’m ready to be with you again.

I have been awhile, and I knew so.

living your face not as a mask, but as a soul

an engine that later powered me throughout my wondrous nights,

and helped me walk the most limping paths

you are apart of me, and I love you,

even when you nearly tore me apart a year ago

the balance of you and him is the true me, it always has been.

the streak in my hair has told that story, and will continue to write it.
