Capturer

Your roots reach further than earth,

Farther than any person I'd known.

This knowledge flowing,

it enlightens the world I see

Heaving out of the shadows;

"come look what I have found"

and I did.

It was gracing my head,

I held it all in.

Out of that desperation

my claws become rotten.

But before they sink into you in all your beauty

I stop

Keep it all to thoughts, to dreams

Seething in admiration,dangerously.

"You've got some too" says the shining one.

I look in the mirror once more,

No beauty do i see, the opposite of the one i look to.

But this dangerous feeling...

I am the monster in your garden.

Sinking under those waves
