Dark Places (Self Pity)
By: Harrison Chiu
Slip under the covers,
Throw the cover over your head,
You can hide away for a little bit
Isn’t the darkness warm?
Come down, little child
Come just a little closer
Don’t you be afraid, my darling
Isn’t it comfortable?
Sink down a little deeper,
Shut out a bit more of that light,
Yes, that’s just fine.
Don’t you feel safe?
Come closer, closer my little child
We can stay here forever,
Shut out the rest of the world
It’s a little lonely down here,
So please,
Don’t go.

Untouchably
elegant,
Blindingly
pure,
Impassively
remote,
Frustratingly
consistent,
Frozenly
crystalline,
Bitingly
cold,
Numbingly
cruel,
Until
I melt in your hands.
