Beast in me

I had to share this.

Would it be tempting
if I told you
that I am not completely what you witness?
Would it still be
if I’m always loath and a fucking mess?
I’ve claws
and vampire teeth.
My soul sprouts on venom.
My tongue is a blood-sucking leech.

I laugh because everyone does.
I cry because I laughed like this.
But I crave to howl
like one stray wolf
in search of a wolf like me.

I unfurl the obsession of outer-space… in my head.
I’m in deep shit, yet I put mascara in my eyelashes.
I’m the perimeter between life and death
yet it’s always me who is dying.

Would it be tempting
if I told you
that I’m not in my senses?
Would it still be
if I’m a liar and nobody’s guess.
I’m trapped in my ribcage.
I puncture my own heart.
I’m afraid that some day soon I’ll fall apart.

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
