i want to
breathe you in
rhythmically,
with gravity on
my side.
i want you
to pull me in,
passionately,
be the ocean
that inhales my
tides.

as isaac, on the walk home
please, won’t you look at me, father?
i can’t erase the memory
of the surrender in your eyes
if i keep staring at your back.
you held my hand as we climbed the mountain.
i felt your pulse through my palm,
your grip tight against the sweat.
God has called us, you said with urgency,
yet you took your time as we ascended.
i can’t remember what i feared more:
the blade,
the flame,
or the aftermath.
who would have made the bigger sacrifice
if there was no ram in the thicket— you? me?
or mother?
is there no test of faith more agonizing
than to forgive?
but even in my final breath, i would have.
i love you even though
i may never understand it,
if only you would tell me. i don’t ask for much—
father! please.
soothe my shivering.
i’m afraid
the next time
i see a knife
i might think
it’s
love.
— Jade A.

NaPoWriMo Prompts
Hello everybody!
I was inspired by @fragiledewdrop's @versesforthedew prompts two years ago, which really got me writing for some of her prompts. So, I'd figured I'd do the same for this month. Like with her poetry prompts, they could be used for prose too (and could help out with your book!)
If you tag me at @betweenthetimeandsound, I'll find your work and reblog them.
addicted to tragedy
half-naked beauty
running without a pursuer
revolt of the angels
a dying rose
crucifixion
bleeding lips
walking on ice
the undefeated
hypocrisy
an era of discontent
there she goes...
despair and hope
for love to replace your shame
broken jade
ritual sacrifice
apocalypse
until eternity
bright red
emptiness
perilous time
habits of the soul
cigar-laced kiss
sunken cost
heavy in your arms
the blue of my oblivion
paradise
figments in watercolor
my sister's crown
resurrection

I once fell in love with a boy from Paris, who worked in a funeral parlor, selling sad flowers by S.R.
