sometimes our hearts should not beat alone
it needs someone whose presence
speaks to our grief, someone whose words
touches our souls already lost
in a hollow full of rotting creatures
dancing in a billion-blooded sea
sometimes, alone, it seems deep inside
shoals are rimmed howling
rioting against surrounding scenes
does it take courage
to love and love sincerely?
