Prayer of a mind
Dorian Mar 30
Light imbued words joining each other
Creating a spell unique to one's mind
Showing honest care, like a mother

Wishing one's healing in a silent prayer
Believing in the magical power of faith
Citing without a sound, in a pleading manner

Sincere hope in fixing a rupture
Achieving what cannot be done
Ever longing for a brighter future

Stained memory
Dorian Mar 29
A sensation far gone
An act already done
All that's left is grief, so i'll make this brief

I'll stain the fading colours with ink
Then set them ablaze with flint
I'll see the memories flash, then look down on the ash

I won't leave any marks
Erasing all these scars
Getting rid of every piece, rewarding me with peace

Seeking moments
Dorian Mar 21
Instead of craving far lenghts
I'm seeking only moments
'Cause what's a tree without decorations?
Empty as a soul without sensations

Poet on the run
Dorian Mar 20
I'll cherish the sun
Wherever i run
I'll seek happiness
Guard myself from emptiness

I'll cherish the moon
Hoping to see it soon
Gazing on the stars
Forgetting my scars

I'll cherish the land
For helping my stand
Ever growing flowers
Helping many lovers

I'll cherish the oceans
For all the lovely motions
Soul soothing sight
Deserving its might

I'll cherish the world
For giving me these words
To express this beauty
Making running truly worthy

Simple plan
Dorian Mar 19
Step one, leaving, far gone
Step two, alone, all you
Step three, carefree

Genetical slander
Dorian Mar 17
Two eyes meet in a sudden manner
Critical thoughts start to scatter
"He's too short", "She doesn't do sports"

Thousands of bullets, ready to be fired
But what made you feel inspired?
There must have been a reason
A need to change one's season

A burning desire to point out a flaw
While having a cold mind, unable to thaw
Come to your senses, lower your defenses

Find the hidden qualities
Step through mere quantities
See the soul behind the gender
And finally end this genetical slander

Free self
Dorian Mar 17
Every now and then
I imagine another stance
Where i have a chance

I dream about my free self
An ideal alternative
Happy to be talkative

Free to feel every sensation
Free to live, free to love
No one judges from above

I'd achieve the gift of freedom
I'd dye my hair and get a tatoo
No longer would it be a taboo

Then i shift back to reality
Fill my mind with all the norms
While hiding all my thorns

No such thing as an exception
Only one valid version, perfection...

Save my breath
Dorian Mar 15
I'll save my breath and walk away
From all the pain in my way
Grab my bag and disappear
No one will be there to hear

I'll save my breath and walk away
Giving up this foul display
I will expand my range
Because something has to change

I'll take my pen and challenge fate
Won't be the fool in my own game
I won't waste a single card
Glory will be my reward

Stressing lullaby
Dorian Mar 15
Time can tell this simple tale
Any minute every day
Many faces going pale
Telling us what words can't say

Once a need
Now's a fear
A lullaby's what you hear

An angelic voice from the distance
Is it ending or is it still distant...

Colour palette
Dorian Mar 15
Colorless world surrounds
Barely any sounds
Just a brush and dim lights
Hand in hand, time for art

Through the looking glass
Light shatters into parts
Colours dance, such a mass
Palette full, time for art

Colours flow and motions grow
Dazzling sights day and night
Endless parade every place
Innocence and grace, the planet's awake

Rooftops
Dorian Mar 14
Standing at the first stop
All you see is a doorknob
Is it locked or open
Take a chance
You'll know it

You might not dare
Since you're unaware
To ease the scare
There's a voice that helps

Kindness and light surrounds
A sudden crack, a simple hush
You're free to go
Now not alone

Enormous space
Yet so less taste
Seeing a pair of stairs
You make haste

Climbing the ranks
Reaching new stories
Uncovering more distinct premises
You feel danger, something arises

A wall's in your path
Blocking the steps
Making you stress

The voice needs rest
The light seems to fade
But here's your chance
Your best offense

Fear and faith combined
Using only your mind
You fill the place with energy
Like a sudden remedy

Everything looks vitalized
Now's the time
Tear it down and shine

Cracks appear,
The wall shatters
Head upstairs
You're almost there

Seeing the rooftops from above
While you wonder alone
Such sight, like a miracle

As day turns into night
The stars all start dancing
Looking at your guides
You join with your own light
Down on earth, yet so high up
On top of the world, another star's up

Afterglow
Dorian Mar 14
You've never seen me shine
But look at this glow
It's not your choice
The stars, they show
But does it hurt
Who knows
Try my eyes
And hope

See that fading point
That faint glow
A story told
But the ending's cold

Darkness shows
The light must go
That's how it goes
That star was old

But there's that glow
Do you see?
That afterglow
That faint hope

Now turn around
Look at me
Where am i?
Your eyes won't show
I'll lend you mine
There's more to know

See that lion? Or that bear?
You don't? They're right there
It's not a story, not a show
It's a light that never goes

Just connect the dots
Everything you know
Take a shot
And you'll see that glow

Now leave the sky
Fall to Earth
Look again
But this time,
Use your own sight

See a heart
See that glow
A story,
Waiting to unfold
Eternal or just bold
There will be afterglow

— The End —
