I see death waiting,
Lurking just beyond the yellow line.
I see it swaying gently on a rope,
The veil is thin now—finally, I see through.
Where is my Azrael?
Will the Grim reap me apart?

Obitual calls,
I stand here, yearning for freedom.
These thoughts, old companions,
Rush through me with sharp adrenaline,
A familiar, manipulative embrace.

My own hands paint the destroyer of men,
An unwanted masterpiece,
Drawn with my blood,
So vivid that God is my light,
Welcome, Uriel.
Illuminate the path for the ******.

Should I let go,
Surrender to the abyss?
Or endure the torment,
Reigning over a throne built on deceptions?

Did Jophiel carve my agony?
It is exquisite, cruelly so;
Leaving cut marks on my hands,
Every scar bleeding a new chapter.
Years spent choking on the weight of a flaming sword,
Its edge pressed tight against my throat.
One final push would release the fury,
And drown me in silence.

Liebestraum
I'm pathetically intensely in love with you,
Lost in your symphony, the Liebestraum (Love's Dream).
I have stitched you into my heart with threads of veins.
You became a rare *****, Don't let it slip.
Don't let it slip, don't let it shatter;
It's yours to keep, forever to matter.
I adore your sonata, each note that you speak,
A melody eternal, tender, and unique.

I’m lost in your eyes; you’re my starry night,
I have lost my mind to capture your light.
You are heavenly divine, I can't deny:
I worship your beauty, a moth drawn to sky.
We will dance in the country, a kiss goodnight.
Sway on the swing, bathed in soft moonlight.

I will have you with all the darkness that you hide,
And offer my madness, wild, untied.
I’ve seen the seasons that live in you—
The autumn’s fall in each blink, so true.
A ray of sun rests on your lashes,
A white full moon in your eyes flashes

Oh, these marks? They’re scars you left behind,
The storm of your touch, a thunder divine.
There’s rain cascading through your hair,
A cozy warmth when you’re near to share.
You’re every atom in my being’s tide;
We must collide, as worlds confide.
I love your blues, as the shadow loves light,
Bound together, eternal in flight.
Hey hon, I know you're right,
And I'm sorry it took me this long to accept it.
You are my light in the dark night,
And I know I'm not enough for you I admit.

I can't compete with your beauty I know that's true,
And it's okay if he is worthy to hold you near.
I'll hold the thought of you though it is askew,
Be happy, I'll disappear, but if you need me I'll appear.

With you, it was a movie I can't deny,
It ended with a twist, I wish I could write our fate, not just these lines of prose.
Your presence is gone, but a tape full of memories to comply,
My lens still captures your gaze, and I'm waiting for it to dispose.

Should I stay, as I promised, though you’ve long been gone?
Or drown in this void, would letting go be wrong?

Camazotz
Here I am, sitting in the corner of my room,  
A place that’s slowly becoming my tomb.  
Dark but cozy, similar to a womb,  
No sign of light; it feels like my gloom.  
Thoughts consume me, no sign of bloom,  
Losing my horizon—could this be my doom?

Laughter Is gone, like a heart,
The echoes are fading, like love.
White dove turns to black dove,
Not a sign coming from above.

A hole in my heart was shoved,
Stopped bleeding, no need for gloves.
Spending years with drowned doves,
Engulfed by darkness, void devours.

I'm the bat of my thoughts,
bruised but man, a Camazotz.
So I embrace my darkness until sunrise,
My thoughts cascade like rain,
I watch them sometimes.
I fight like a knight just to save it all,
In the end, it all collapses when I rhyme.

So I remain in my tomb,  
Searching for a horizon beyond my doom.  
The other side can’t bring gloom;  
I believe there, I will find bloom.

Telomeres
Versifier0 May 13
You show me light with peace,
Fading my darkness, illuminating my fate.
It’s you who breathe,
Yet my heart pumps blood.

Do you push me out
When I breathe you in?
You are the end of me, my telomeres—
My structure, my youthfulness.
You are my wings;
With you, I touch the blue vastness.

In your presence, I feel heavenly.
If the sun blocks your way to heaven,
I will be your Icarus,
Devouring the sun.

And there was a fall from my eyes;
I write your name with each drop—
A secret only I can read.

I dive into your ocean,
And the blue reflects on me.
I’ll swim your tides,
Even through the fiercest storm.

Your eyes pull me in—
I’m your cult force,
Born of your string of gravity.

The fabric of space and time on your skin
Bends my knees,
A place where even light cannot escape.

A brighter future awaits us—
Is this the beginning of everything?

Your lips, an instrument of serenity,
Guide me to your divinity.
We are doves, soaring through the sky,
Searching for a peaceful sigh.

When you hold me close,
I find my gateway to heaven.
We’ll venture beyond reach together;
If you fall, my arms will catch you.

We are two stars colliding,
Bursting into a red nova.
The particles we leave behind
Are the remnants of our gaze.

— The End —
