I have found
that there are
no certainties,
nothing that
one may truly
claim as their own.

Torn from my hand
was your heart,
and you have sought
to devour my soul
through manifestations
that have charred
the walls of my mind.

After reading many of your works before, it has convinced me that your work is becoming quite contemporary. I just feel at ease when reading it -- everyone can relate in some way, shape, or form to your work, because it's simplicity packed with power.

Some readers feel the need to use archaic language and whatnot to make for a powerful poem, and I can say I am guilty for that, or maybe it's just my style, I don't know.

Anyways, your writing gets better and better each read. Thank you for sharing!
