      Till Death

      Wind rushing through the opened window. My mouth still covered by his digits. I see the airflow rattle the leaves of the petty flowers he got me in the kitchen. “I’mma make you a widow if you don’t quit your...

      • Thank you so much 🙏🏻💕

      • SHIT!! FUCK!! It’s hard to know what to say. I wish I had the words, but anger gets in the way.

        The only thing I can think is: Drieks, you know that you are a human being, a woman, and nothing he says is true. You know this right? Deep down inside you, you know, and believe, not just the words but the reality of being, of being you, whole, wonderful, and worth being alive.

        This poem will stay with me for a long time

      • Powerfully penned, Drieks. Excellent write my friend, thank you for sharing your truth. Appreciate you.

      • The title says it all till death.
        It sounds romantic in wedding vows. It clarifies your commitment to each other but sometimes things change.
        Not for the better. This write is a clear example of how it can manifest into a nightmare except it’s real.
        This is a great scene to build on. In the back of my mind I was hoping she would find the mace!

      • That was very difficult to read, my friend. I am so glad you wrote this years ago. I am certain you are no longer in that situation nor any other like it. You are too, too strong now to ever again allow that.
        There is so much power in your writing, Drieks. I’ve been listening to your work and re-reading the words and constantly amazed; I keep turning other people on to you. Keep up the good work; you are one of our best — and I do not mean just here. I mean anywhere, everywhere.

    • As The World Caves In

      Sometimes I wake up in eternal darkness.And I really wish to escape.All the plans and memories that fade. That distract me from my loneliness and woe.They protect me from war and foe.Slowly over the years,the sun slowly got brighter. But it...

      • Thia is a deeply moving poem, Crimsin. I felt especially those last 3 line. And the music made the poem more real to me, more tragic. To desire death, yet condemned to life, where only sadness can be found. And yet, there is also the deeply felt desire to be “understood”. Crimsin, you may not want anyone in your “onyx tower”, but your poem calls to us nonetheless. Is this not an invitation to at least feel your words?

        You write powerfully, Crimsin.

      • hello dearest Curt of course it is I hope to move always that you got it makes me happy thank you ❤️

      • I sure hope this is fiction! Fat or not, this guy is a sad excuse for a man. I’ve never understood why some men treat their wives so terrible. A mistake I’ve seen in my life is that of assuming the children of a bad person will be bad, too.
