Bridgette Elizabeth Dalton Poems

Ambiguity and simplicity refuse to coexist
Complications seem free and they're tempting me, how can one resist?
When the world that i escape from and my refuge are the same,
how can I feel that nothing real but love is to blame?
...

Have I loved too fast? too often? too much?
Skipping from merely existing to eternal crush?
What if what I see is much less than I let on?
My heart cannot start to see signs of another dawn.
...

Words that should not be spoken will not calm down inside my head
I find myself unable to call BLACK what's glowing RED
but time has laid itself out like a sheet over these mistakes
Too alive to declare dead
...
