Sacrifice
Do the saddest poets,
Bleed the best poetry?
If so, beauty costs.
Each tear is alphabetised,
And spells out a word in ink.
Salt meets dark.
Sting meets night.
A strange kind of revelry,
An oddly gentle hostility.
~ Suffering breeds art. That's the gist. Even I don't completely understand why I've chosen certain phrases. This is just how it came out. (31.08.23).
