The following is a Guest Post and may not be in line with the philosophy of Our Alter Ego. I just wanted to give people the opportunity I always thirsted for but never got, which is a platform for expression. I hope you appreciate the endeavours.
Be Light,
Much Love,
Iam Aehr.

He wakes up at night and starts crying against my bosom.
He is disturbed, he asks for forgiveness.
I let him in, comfort his insecurities, put up with his sickness
Allow his quiescence to blossom
Yes he is sick;
Every night he howls and loses control
This makes me tick
He makes love to me but I see nothing in the deep hollows of his eyeballs. Nothing. His coldness shudders my soul.
I love him but he fawns for someone else.
Beloved Darling cheater
Beloved darling liar
I give you flowers but you love thorns,
I give you fresh dew but you love dead leaves,
I give you light breeze but you love lethal gusts,
I give you sunlight but you love wax and candles,
I hear your pen rustling against the crisp white paper,
I know you write not of me or maybe you do.
Beloved darling cheater
Beloved darling liar
I wish to alleviate you of your pain,
I wish to set you free
I know you hurt,
I saw your face when his coffin was being buried
I know you love me not or maybe you do
Beloved darling cheater
Beloved darling liar
I know you wished you could have taken the bullet
But what you know not is that I am ready to do the same for you
I saw the way you looked at him
I wish you looked at me with less of a dim
Snakes hissing, medusa spitting venom,
Raging storm, whirlpool of dark ablations, prison of trapped emotions in my bosom.
Everyone is someone’s devil and beloved darling liar, I am yours.
You won’t find anyone like me among your whores.
