fading (Free verse) by PunchMeInTheFace We're enveloped by darkness
As daylight buckles, breaks, and fades
Under the weight of the rising moon.
I develop a false sense of security,
With the steady rhythm of your breath,
Of your heart.
Your presence is heavy.
I drown in your smell.
Why don't you to stay here a while?
(forever)
How can I sleep?
I'm living a dream.
Up the ladder:
coffee cup
Down the ladder:
The Blood-Stained Body

I don't understand the title. Nothing here seems to be fading. Read your other 2, and I get the feeling your not jumping in. Just wandering around the perimeter. This is the strongest and most invested of the 3. I especially can relate to the last 2 lines, but somehow the last line feels overly dramatic in a cheesy sort of way.
