PhoenixesPoems - Hello Poetry

Do you always speak in poetry? ... Steamy breath swirls in the Stagnant air, my hair hangs Dusty smudges itching Under paper skin ... No, I breathed ... Eyes shut, eyes open The words dance, I hear their Ethereal whispers, muffled By masks and heavy cloaks ... I miss you.

Happy She breathes Face intertwined In rosy smiles She is a wallflower On chalky rust brick Clinging onto Ignorance Isn't it bliss?

Baby blue blur The dolls eyes are wet Darling, please Trying, begging again Gripping tight, letting go But it haunts Cries are like smoke Nightmares never fade

Metal skeleton, pretty lights Frozen breaths sit still Circular motion, hazy nights Silent minds sound a siren Swooping lows, soaring highs We've lost our balance again Mechanic cogs, wailing cries The fair ground is eternal

His eyes cloudy grey Storms clouds once, tired now Breathes like sand bags Heavy and damp Slowly holding in a flood Ragdoll in the wind He falls, limp and lost I hold- til sleep

Watching your smile Listening to your Shiny golden laugh It's all yellow. Wildflower meadows Sunsets on beaches Endless sunny days The world melting Like icecream in the heat Sticky and sweet Swimming in thick syrup So tiring, just like Painting a perfect grin Sometimes, I see the blue.

Flash. A gleaming smile Teeth made of pearls Cold to the touch I miss the warmth That used to heat Those lips, steel now Metallic and bitter An alien in armour So thick it will Resist my candle Wax heart I never said but It won't melt on It's own.

Denial. Slips like smooth ice Into a delicate mind Freezes over the wound Numbs the pain Til it's only dull and You can forget Everything that hurts, Just for a moment Let's play pretend Paint a freezeframe Of grey emotions It feels better than Red and blue.

Aren't we all hourglasses? Sand constantly pouring Thousands of tiny golden grains Growing giant in their masses A plunge pools depth filling As the dry waterfalls escape We are always forgetting How easy it is to suffocate We run on quick sand Legs moving as we sink Pounding, wheezing, aching We can't ever stop and think Let the tap run empty Now, we lie completely still Unable to move, unable to pour Our life stolen against our will In misery we have to wait To let the glass flip over Until the sand starts to drip At first we let it run slower But so fast we drain out rivers So we drown, again.
