Dakota Ellerton Poems

For once lost in the void of bitterness,
I wept for all I'd dreamt of losing.
The wasted years of solitude to pull from you and I,
as if we could wait forever.
...

In and beneath the wings of uncertainty
I bare the thoughts of denial.
I believe in believing in you,
as though all my other truths were lies.
...

I can nearly feel your breath against my skin,
the impure sanity I crave lingers bitterly in my mouth.
The beautiful sensation of a solitude nothing surrounds me.
I'm seeking only answers,
...

Once more I've found you.
Buried deep into my flesh,
crypted within my ribcage,
I believe it to be your name shadowing upon my heart.
...

I awoke to the impatience of my thoughts.
My arms had frozen to my sides,
and I could feel tears drying on my cheek.
I shook around as my breath shortened,
...

I held to the possibility that you had become wiser,
without suffering we walk into the oblivion unarmed.
I sacrafice endlessly for you and only you,
as I cling to the belief of your salvation.
...

It's as if she were mere poison to me.
Every kiss and whisper,
sent shivers through my flesh.
She's the uncommon cause of goosebumps.
...

The impermance of salvation,
begins to bleed at the imperfect seems of dilusion.
I beg involuntarily as my body shakes and strokes.
I once believed in faith,
...

I sat in my own lonliness,
to think and drink,
to surround myself in bitter thoughts.
As I read and read,
...

I stop to gaze up,
as a storm of leaves uncontrollably dance around me.
I was once also carried by the wind.
My skin tightens white at the chills of Fall.
...
