Lorna Lornelia May 2018
Far away, eons away from home  
A child is praying to the stars,
Underneath the canopy of milky way
Is round lone moon, beaming  in delight -
Echoed by the sea
As midnight strikes
And wishes are granted to those  whose  lives hang within a dream.

Here the colour  yellow floods back in each vein
The flowers bloom back to their glory
Whilst the earth breathes harmoniously
As silence becomes poetry.

i love you*
it took a year to realize that
bold- him
italic- me.

everything seems right
again as we lay under
the moon together

My hands are freezing in the cold
Water trickled and froze
Like sunburned icicles
Down in the Edgewater plane
Where my older love and I
We move through and weave
And I want to say
My fingers freezing and tapping
Endlessly in the wind
Trying to make sense of this
Nonesensical life
It's almost punishment to wait in the cold
Just to go work out and hustle
Into the terrain.

I bought a coffee
To warm my Alabama lungs
It's called Lumberjack
Right by your house
You put on my favorite shirt today
And I know and you know deep
Down
I've done you so much good
And you me.

6 month mark
We comb our hair
The same color
But I know I'm a better blonde
And you too.

I love you so deeply
Though my youthful emotional responses
Feel flurried and scattered
But we grow and go
We grow and go together

No where to sit on the crowded train
Alabama we think this way
Inked up skin
Remember when
It was just you and me
At the candle lit dinner
And of course women want you

You are the best there is.

In one single night I realized the meaning in which I have been dwelling my entire life to find out the answer to
but now I fear that I know too much about what needs to be kept unknown

I've been mumbling the words of one thousand dead relatives every second of my life.
You can't hear me, neither could I until this one particular night.

I found myself on a bike riding south and wondering why I'm here, what made me get here and why am I on a bike and why am I riding south and why am I ten years old I feel like I should be one million

I fell asleep and woke up one year older, then I repeated the process and now the candles can't fit on the cake but my blow gets compared to storms

I can't keep up and on my death bed I will speak the words of Eve

She said, "This life was made for you, are you ready to do it again?"

and I replied, "We are the same, you and I"

you can hold me in
but can’t take me out
I’m somewhere within
but not what you’re about
I’ll give you my nightcall
****, you have my all
and that’s my downfall
cause’ you can only give me what’s been left
since you never retrieved the rest
the bits others hold
those who’s love for you grew old
they took the pieces of your heart
little bits of who you are
leaving you with all sorts of scars
and you never got back the parts
of your beautifully damaged heart
but I can see what you are
amazing like the moon and stars
but just so crazy far
and I need you undivided
all the way decided
on having me
and the mess I can be
totally sure
so I can feel secure
you just have to retrieve
the pieces that are scattered
so I know you won’t leave
and that we really matter

I loved you everything about you

the good the bad and the ugly

you completed my existence you vanished all the pain

you held my hand and made me feel love for the first time only by your touch and how you felt

you gave me a dead flower and i said goodbye, because the pain was too much to bear

i came back with open arms you held me tight and said you loved me, my heart was filled with joy and my body kept shaking, but all this time words from your mouth were lies

they were sweet poison, my poison

you were my all, and i was your nightcall , you were my love and i was your game, you were mt man i was your toy.


i miss your games and your lies thats how much i know i loved you guy.
This may not be the best poem, or even a nice one
but it means something to me and i liked to share it :)
