Cero Mercer Poems

is there enough time to rid the damage of old
before you arrive and we fend the cold
with our bodies pressed as one without light
only feeling in this cold moonless night
...

Fur itching beneath this flesh coat
A subdued howl hidden in a throat
Society damning, Internet backlash
People never thinking instead acting fast
...

You took the step forward
I couldn't as i died there and then
You wish me the best hoping happiness would follow
Maybe for you but not for me trapped in sorrow.
...

Difficult times standing behind
Waiting for a lapse to spring into mind
They lurk and wait
You're their perfect mate
...
