Nature fanatical recluse
Occasionally you will visit the cemetery of your heart Looking for that vivacious love for life Buried somewhere out there And then you find it in the smile Of a little babe And for that briefest moment you will find that peace in that perfect giggle, the gurgle of happiness and that innocence And then, just like that it will be a painful reminder Or what once was What would be been And what will never come to pass

Corner of my heart
. 'From the moment I get up to the moment I get back into the confines of my bed, My mind is avoiding the inevitable and that's why the begining of the night is always the hardest And then is when you become the war raging in my mind The lump in my throat The tears threatening to break through this **** holding it together The unequivocal deep rooted sadness buried here in my heart and soul And the loss that fires through every synapse in my mind And so I reach out to touch your hand and fall asleep with the ghost of your fingers intertwined

Ghosts of your fingers
. Some nights the sky is awash with pretty little lights Each twinkle a reminder of your captivating eyes The magic of your soul The beauty of your life Some nights the heavens Mournfully rain sorrow into the ground that is a million hearts Affected by your being here And within the same ones A jagged streak of dysphoria Brilliant, shocking and blinding lightening Pummels down on the beaten souls below And for a brief moment the world is ablaze with you once more There is no need for a coping mechanism then The thunder is the rumble of a Love quivering in the pit of your stomach, Feather strokes of tingling passions burning somewhere inside Always Requited And there are some nights, Some nights where the full moon Bathes the entire lands beneath With a guiding spark I associate only with you Moonlight of guidance, kindness and love And it's in those nights My atriums burst, and synapses devour all that surrounds me And I weep a river On the the land of my pillow An earthquake of sobs Masking the tell tale sounds of a breaking heart And I am reminded once more of you Because you are my Ramadan, So poignantly true, and clear of a message Of peace and unity And THAT is what makes you so dear to me

Some nights
It's not just your mind, Or your heart, Or even your soul It's the physical manifestations Aswell as the poetic infestations The clicks of your fingers speak the language of arthritis. Ancient creaks betweens whimpers of pain The wrinkles on your face draw comparisons to the arid, desert veins of your starving heart The canyon and valleys of your teeth show open carcases of decaying gums. Your smile is LOST. Not the average one you save for acquaintances and work, NO. The real deal, the one that crinkles at your eyes and runs deep in your veins The kind that pulsates goodness into your lungs. That simple 21% of oxygen flooding kindness and then you breath out 16 % oxygenated, Passionate, UNBREAKABLE LOVE

It isn't just this or that
What is this cruelty? That I look through the lense My heart stuck somewhere between my gut and oesophagus Bile of revulation and loss Tethering in my mouth ***** of pain Streaming from my blistered tongue Stomach acids burning my insides Wrinkles mapping the milestones of my life I weep on nights like this The ones that remind me Of what once was Oh what could have been And what till never come to pass What will be Is my heart will shatter a million Times over Thinking of your smile And laughter Just 31536000 seconds ago I miss you till the pain quakes My every apoptotic Necrotic, Programmed Cell death It's already gone These are rattling bones An empty cage Because, without you I am just - A Dead Body Breathing

Dead body breathing
How do you move on From looking into the abyss And seeing all that love Ripped from your fingers How do you move on With a life so broken That leaves you with a Constant ache in your chest A lump always in your throat Waiting to burst How do I say That if life delivered a choice on Ballot box I'd always mark the x next to Your name

Abyss of love
There are simple parts of me That long for you to be here and see Look at this pain etched on heart of filigree Of which only you could have been the trustee Waiting for a love in the great beyond where you hold the master key A passion of which you and I hold an honarory degree Because I love you, so honest and true, every single idiosyncracy But I'll be waiting an eternity If I believed that you and I can become three Because that, my dear was never meant to be It breaks my heart that this was your decree And so I must now set you free

Idiosyncracy
How often I look for you In this expansive universe How often I speak to you As though you are right next to me How often I reach out for your hand only to find it's missing How often I ache for all the Missing parts of me that left with you How often I look at my own reflection and see you staring back at me How often I think on this day for you And your own lost celebration How often do you run through my mind Is there no escape to this madness? How often How often ________________________________________________ #discovery #instahub #instatravel #travel #naturephotography #visitplaces #mytinyatlas #vacation #igtravel #amazingplaces #mycapture #passionpassport #ourlonelyplanet #travelgram #travelling #Wanderlust #travelphotography#vscophile #Vsco #vscocam #TravelBug #VSCODaily #Vscobest #spilledink #poetsofIG #writerscommunity #writersofig
