Haloed Ache


I heard a piece of news tonight,
Disturbing-
And I found myself utter a cry
Of muted despair.
The wingless words throttled
Within-
Choked breathless,
I encased them
Disguised,
Within the folds of my soul.

Gurgling inside my heart,
I found the ache
Squeeze its way through.
And as I looked on,
I found the secret enveloped
Deep within my skin-
And tattooed into my flesh,
The news burnt.

A smoky halo, I adore.
For I bury deep in,
A secret ache-
Fuming.
