Cronus

Snow Selmon Apr 2021

Cronus

I was the living god
I was in a bliss so pure
and I thought this is how the world felt
I was Cronus until my son
Zeus was born
and down came my
DEMISE

leaking

Snow Selmon May 2021

leaking

leaking

drops of water so lonely yet so full

leaking

it held love that I can't

leaking

a secret a once held

leaking

I used to have love

leaking

until it all leaked out

It hurts to love
It hurts to live
Time for another drink

Waking up

Snow Selmon Aug 2023

Waking up

What could be better
Than Coffee
A kiss
And laying in bed
With your special person

Poet

Poet

When the poet talks
I hear their story
But when they write
I listen to their demons

Stories

Snow Selmon Sep 2023

Stories

Even if the moon shall stop
and the waves shatter in their lonely dance
I will be there at the tide
Waiting for the salt in the air to stand still over the desert sand
to tell me stories of lost lands

quiet

Snow Selmon Jul 2021

quiet

stitch my mouth
one at a time

stealing words
from smoke

a dream
from my head

if I left

Snow Selmon Jul 2021

if I left

if I passed would you look for me
if I was gone from here would you care
if I was buried in the ground would you mourn
why would you care about someone like me
some broken
person...

Mist

Mist

In the time
In-between his breaths
I saw the mist of lies
His soul has whispered to mine

Escape

Escape

I cannot hide
I cannot flee
I cannot escape
who I used to be

Sky Drops

Snow Selmon Oct 2021

Sky Drops

walking through clouds
catching blue drips of sky
catching in my mind
a vision, a dream?
of what is meant to be
a shallow shell
one little hole of where I could be
I will let the blue drips go
washing away the colour
leaving me emotions
bear and exposed

river

Snow Selmon Aug 2021

river

Cry me a river they say
if only they knew
that tears are not what create the rivers
but the emotions
that become from their journey

Sick

Snow Selmon Oct 2023

Sick

Sometimes I'm sick
Emptying my feelings
Into the pipes they go
Just to resurface later
To haunt me again

static

Snow Selmon May 2021

static

as I was in eternal darkness
until...
you helped me scan
and find some reception
so that I could see colour
and shine

my secret

Snow Selmon Nov 2021

my secret

Am I too scary for you
Am I covering the moon
Am I a problem to you

Will you love me
Will you trust me
Will you believe me

I have a feeling
I have a problem
I have a secret

I still dream of you
I still love you
I still wish you were in my arms

Am I wrong to think
"Will you love me"
Am I right to still
dream of you loving me...

Breaking

Snow Selmon Nov 2023

Breaking

I saw the most beautiful
Most exotic antique
But as I reached out
It shattered...
Into crystallised shards
Not only does touch break
Just being near me
Is enough
To break everything

if you

Snow Selmon May 2021

if you

if you even followed me
with a name I wouldn't know
I would still cherish you so
and somehow you mean the world
Latin Verbs for me and you
Te Amo Angelius Bambi
I figured out the puzzle
and it was love
I still cherish the memories
you and I shared
forever and forever
true love stands
so come and find me
I'm still waiting
arms open and blood bared
I will give everything
for our love to stand

low

low

he looks upon me
faced down to the ground
seeking a truth
that can't be taken
nor received
because it is me

Untitled

Snow Selmon Jul 2021

Untitled

fields of red
lines of roses
all seem to shed their tears
a lay and stare

roses don't care
so why do I
always taking on red
blazing burning red

blood that talks and sings
but dies and falls
and in all of this
well I'm not worth it

battle

battle

the blue is violet
the red tears of fire

the white stars flash
darkness consumes

bursts of sound
unparalleled pain

She's lost

Snow Selmon Oct 2023

She's lost

She's lost
I don't know where
I can't find her
She won't answer me
Is she gone

Sunken Cry

Snow Selmon Jun 2021

Sunken Cry

Darkened sky
Shy from dormit sleep
Stark intruding flies
Scry fire and flame
Burnt muscle
Broken empire
One glass admires
And opals rain
Where fire is reality
And water is danger
Where fire is lava
And water is a tsunami
Turning the toils of war

Doors

Doors

If a door opens
You don't have to enter
It's human nature
To be weary

In the end

Snow Selmon Jul 2023

In the end

We all have regrets
We all stray from our goals
But...
We also have hope
We all find our own paths

crush

Snow Selmon Mar 2021

crush

I laid eyes on the one I loved
and they sang
they dug in my ground
not slipping on sand
no more pain
I was safe
and as I was crushing
I found you were there
in the hard times
but then...
the hope well
let's say it got
CRUSHED

save a life

save a life

I lost you
in the end
where there was nothing
dreams of limbs
and your eyes
blue
striking loving blue

scratches

Snow Selmon Mar 2021

scratches

nails on skin
droplets
drip, drip

losing sanity
in my blood
ecstasy

pure elation
pure bliss
scratches

drip, drip
on the floor
bleeding out

when the clock strikes 12
I will fall for you
a undead promise

it was for you I was here
and now the canvas is red
no more pink

I will scratch the pain away
leaving water color red
I am alone I am dead

drip, drip, drip

night

Snow Selmon Sep 2021

night

running through a field
running blind
unable to find you
you're darkness a shield
a sadness defined
my heart see-through

Daydreaming

Snow Selmon Apr 2023

Daydreaming

Daydreaming
Of things unfathomable
Unable to sleep
Why is it us
Why are we here
Blood and war
Sometimes
It’s unclear
What we’re doing here

the river

Snow Selmon Aug 2022

the river

my blood runs over the rocks
the cold covers my body
blood draining from me
I don't need a heart
I don't need blood
I don't need a life
when no one loves me

206 · Feb 2021

the road

Snow Selmon Feb 2021

the road

you walk through the ground
then through the sand of time
through love that's more than love
through a affection that spreads hands
through a spirit that is solid
and a body that resonates love
which will always be more than love
like I am more than a person
I am a lover
meaningful love than love is to the sand of time

Learning

Snow Selmon Apr 22

Learning

It hurt when I fell
But I got back up
And did it again
Only to fall over and over
Some of us maybe not the best of us
But some of us
We always make the same mistakes

broken ice

Snow Selmon Mar 2021

broken ice

I was stepping onto ice
very thin ice
and I slipped fell and heard a crack
only to be swallowed up
by the jaws of water
a coldness only pain can bring
and you caused that when you left
you broke your promise although
why would you care you only were the world to me

Light

Snow Selmon Oct 2021

Light

Turn to the east and watch the light rise
And turn the light to the west
Where your dreams disappear
And the world goes dark

Louis

Snow Selmon Feb 2021

Louis

you stole the person I love
you stole their happiness
and their joy
so sorry if I seem like a demon
but... if you hurt them I will come for you
with bright blue flames
and take your heart for what you did

When we talk
I can help but think
How did I get this lucky

pastel

pastel

soft lines of brushes
lining my face with color
so pale and soft
I am divine
they line my face and they will never know
I will let my pale colors
GLOW

The past

The past

Thinking about the past
Seems unreal
Like a dream
I've seen it and done it
But I'm just not sure it happend

Smoke

Snow Selmon Aug 2023

Smoke

Yesterday I lit a cigarette
And I realised I hesitated
I pictured your face
And for a second I couldn't
I just couldn't have it
But addiction won
And now the cycle continues

rivers

Snow Selmon Feb 2021

rivers

little waves
shattering on rocks
fragile leaks
cracking white smoky mist
dreams are gone
they are the past
they will bleed like rivers end
until they meet the sea

Worried

Snow Selmon Aug 2023

Worried

I'm always worrying
About when you'll move on
Find someone better
I'm not hard to replace
You've got men lining up
I'm worried
And scared
That'll you find someone else

Relationships

Relationships

Relationships are strange
You can be arguing but flirting
You can be laughing but at who
You can act happy but be miserable

See you in my dreams tonight
for the stars only align in the dark

Fire & Ice

Snow Selmon Jan 2023

Fire & Ice

When the fire takes my soul, I will remember you. When the ice envelopes me I will forget. Everything has a consequence. when the fire took me into its arms I fell into desires path. But when the ice took me into its cold embrace I felt home. I will be safe inside this shell; I shall not fall into fire once again; I shall not fall into desires Torture. I will not let you drag me down, with you. I am free from desire, and once again the real me.

Mirror

Why are you looking at me
Why do you look sad but happy
Why are you crying but smiling
Why does it look just like me

puppet

Snow Selmon May 2021

puppet

pull the strings
I am bound to the stage
a cement paper weight
a permanent record
on the radio
seen on the pavement
a bit everywhere
where my mind is lost
and the puppet is happy
a long life
a job is road
take it
take the highway home

alone

Snow Selmon Feb 2021

alone

kisses from the rain tell me where I am
they always made me want to disappear
and for once I think it cam true
and for the first time in my life I was happy
for a little until
I was alone and it dawned on me
that those kisses were a curse

Side effect

Snow Selmon Aug 2021

Side effect

dying is a side effect of living
always running around a
universes whim
being lonely is a side effect
and being sad is a side effect
living is not a gift but a curse
for we will never be whole
with the side effect of living
