Forthcoming

Red darkness comes across 
	your face blooms within
	the confines of 
your chest

Is it bringing comfort when it
	comes for you
	for when it comes
for you

Forever calling 
	at the door
	or sticking in
your throat

Tight against
	your skin
	your skin
	your hand
	your soul

	always again
	second third or fourth
	or more

You wish to deny it entry but it cannot be denied

Your sole request
	is peace
	but it is not forthcoming is not
for you
	is not forthcoming

It is coming
	for you
