my heart got fat

i won't
be able to get anywhere at the last moment
jump into arms
fall in love
crash against compromise

from now on
i'll be always in advance
                                            at waiting rooms

I gave words a try
Wrote them
They helped me fly,
free
In my mind
Abstract, as freedom is
Now, we never stop
The words, and I

Ciel Noir
there  ✧  is  ✧  a  ✧  star
will sleep until             it is destroyed
what we are                          and spills out life
       where our essence                                    into the void       
      become a part of the sky                   and what wise hand      
      you and I                                                             may­ fabricate      
moons and planets                                           the many things  
melting out into the night                                     that it creates  
      incandescent searing light                          moons and planets        
till the Sun begins to turn                                stone and metal  
burn whatever they can burn                           running water  
until only monsters remain                            flower petals  
     and up the chain                                       moving round      
  on and on                                   by their own power    
      to eat the bees                                    little bees          
       little birds                 to eat the flowers        
singing sweetly in the trees
Burning some sage to
keep free of old age
but
I'm finding that it doesn't work
and as reality goes
I need one more big dose
because the last one
didn't work very well
and the well that I wished in
cost me fifty eight shillings
and that gave me no change at all.

The bars are all closed
who supposed that could be?
it seems I mixed up the dose
and took the one marked as fantasy
but they both looked the same to me.

The heart is made for loving
but also has to be tested by suffering

The emptiness is the end
of everything
sans  enemy or friend
self dissolves into nothing
