Wings of white

To be tarnished

under his hands

a glorious dirtying of my soul

that takes me out of myself

and gives me back more of me

than I ever knew existed.

.

Wings of white

smudged with ash

as I allow myself

to feel what is forbidden

as I begin to understand

that my desires

as deeply dark as they have become

make me whole.
