Cameron: Poems

Hidden behind you
Each whisper in the ear, a
Light tap on the shoulder,
People don't understand.

Moments pass when it's not there

Each time, managing to convince me, maybe I'm safe.

A head lies empty,
Nothing put to waste,
A body lies broken,
Put you in your place,
The soul is devoured,
The divine is debased.

I don’t belong in this world anymore. The color has faded, and the rain has come. Where there was once sun, there is only darkness. Where there was once happiness, only sorrow and pain.

There he stands. The tall looming doorway, almost as inviting as his cold, lifeless embrace, but an embrace nonetheless. I just want to cry. I just want the stars to take me into their embrace, so I can float far above this planet, and leave it all behind, but at the same time, I never want to leave. A coward maybe?

‘Where is my mind?’

Vengeance

Cameron Jul 2023

Vengeance

The rush comes quickly,
It lingers and fades and returns once more,
The eternal knocking drowning thought and good deeds,
Leaving only star-crossed shards to drift into oblivion,
And a great well brimming with fire.

Wake up

Cameron Mar 2019

Wake up

Realize that your actions, affect those around you.
Realize that suffering, pain, and loneliness are all parts of life,
But they do not define who you are.
Realize you have the potential for greatness.

Whoops

Cameron Jan 2018

Whoops

I'm trying hard.

To some people it comes more naturally, but too me,

I'm in way over my head.

I do think I'm doing something with the right intentions though, but I just don't know how to do it the correct way.

It's frustrating, and infuriating, and I think I've already messed up.

Might as well quit while I'm ahead.

Within

Cameron Dec 2017

Within

The emptiness within.
The longing for something greater.

And yet the total lacking that is deeply embedded inside my mind.

Why does it have to be this way.
Is there no one who will receive.

And yet hope lies with those who don't even know they provide it.

Maybe there is a chance that something will change.
I know I have the ultimate say in the end.

You

Cameron Jan 2018

You

The person in my life I never quite new how to talk too.

How can I help?

At every chance I get, I swear I try to let you in.

Isolation won't comfort you.

You might think being alone will make you

stronger.

Is it just

A cry for aid?

Or maybe you were like this from the start.

I don't want to see you like this anymore.
