Ayn Oct 2020
Maybe it’s not
A needle and thread,
But a voice.
One which carries words
On waves above a crowd.
Someone does need to weave words, but I now know that the truly unique people can do that, and then speak those words flawlessly. To ignite a spark of emotion that lights a flame of passion. That’s what I wish to be.

When disarmed in the fall,
the winter ground
Hits harder than all.
No way to brace
For the mind’s justice,
So I lay, cold and tired.
I’m just a *bit* burnt out.

This has a bit to it.
It’s about being burnt out.
I disarmed myself during the cool season, where i had suspicions that i would burn out, but i denied them. Then I hit hard in the rough cold season, without any warning, or way to brace myself.

The justice was that I was right. I got burnt out, badly. I need a nap ****.
Ayn Oct 2020
All the sighing ashes disappear,
Worries drowned out in my own fear.
An endless void lies inside their mind.
Any more defiance and I’ll go blind.

Leave me to be
For a lifetime now lost,
We all lived our wasted lives,
Until the cat’s path is crossed.
Ayn Oct 2020
Beauty to be found
Lies throughout the stony earth.
In the morning dew ground,
We find the life that shall be known
In all things
where the wind has been blown
Thoughts, lovely thoughts.
Ayn Oct 2020
Maybe i never wanted it,
Simple formalities
To bore those who stand informal.

Maybe I couldn’t give it,
Slippery slopes
Taking away my ability to feel.

But really,
You didn’t want it,
So I never gave it.
Every action has an equal-opposite reaction, my feelings reciprocated your own, and now you’re long gone. I wish you well, my friend.
Ayn Oct 2020
Flowers mill about
The field of conceited sunlight.

For pleasure?
For knowledge?
No,
Forsworn.
Ayn Oct 2020
Sliding through
a mountain of confusion;
My ghastly body shattering
the weakened illusion.

Crow’s feathers fall in reams...
This world really is
As sad as it seems.
