Dicra with an E
I won't forget about last time,
I tried to tell my pain,
I know I have lots in my mind,
And I might carry it all with me,
But here and now, I promise,
I'd rather die drowning,
Than scream for a saviour.

Dear heart,
I was to protect you,
I taught you to train yourself,
To learn to let go,
But you didn't want to learn,
And now you're bleeding,
Bleeding, like you won't stay for too long,
I'm sorry, you were not saved successfully.

This time round,
I'm done,
Done with loving me,
Done with self care,
And the skin care routine,
I'm so done,
Buying marbles,
And having stones hurled at me.

I took the words that dove from your lips
And let them drown inside me
Hoping that they would sink forever
Suffocating your washed up memory

Your name on the tip of my tongue
Your voice at the edge of my brain
Like jumping off a cliff to end it all
Forgetting you is hard to explain

I watched her eyes
like I gazed at the stars
trying to discover
the constellations of her heart

I watched with wonder and awe
how she glowed and smoldered in the light
while only appearing cold as comet ice

Her sight ravished me to no end
as she gracefully lit the night sky
but saddened I couldn't reach her
I could not fly
We long for that which is distant.

A poem
Isn’t directly Poetry,
Yet Poetry shall always take
A poem’s form
No matter what lips,
Eyes,
Thoughts
Or acts
Shall stutter it,
In the non-verbal closeness
As well,
If not even more
Poem does not = Poetry,
But can Poetry = poem?
