Allete Ives Oct 2015
Pink roses and sun burnt skin
The sweet warmth when I saw you
A pair of soft lips
Red car and summer wind
Drive away fast with my heart
A wild wish
Pale yellow notes and distance
You disappear in the meantime
I think your a figment of my imagination
Blue fire and cold words
Sometimes your eyes are the truth
Two different worlds
Allete Ives Oct 2015
Play my heart like the fiddle,
Make it fun.
Pluck the strings like a harp,
And see me shine as the sun.
Strum the rhythm like a guitar,
To being wild and young.
Bow the love like a violin,
When the game gets old and our time is up.
Press the beating like a piano,
If you miss me love.
Hear the the symphony of a summer orchestra.
Allete Ives Oct 2015
People look and stare like I'm crazy
But to be honest I see you all in vertigo
Pulsing in and out of oblivion
Don't any of you care about the truth
Fake.
People ask me why I'm leaving
But I never arrived actually
Just a slate of erroding curiosity
Do any of your pieces fit here
Hate.
People of bloated and dense realities in motion
But I see the potential barricaded within you
Lodged by ego and envy
Don't any of you know love is the best word to describe
Death.
Which is just a means to an end before the next cycle
Allete Ives Oct 2015
It was bright with the sun on our side
Now nobody sings
Allete Ives Oct 2015
Eve
You've already taken a bite.
What's one
Or three more?
The Apple of Knowledge
You know you want
To eat it to the core,
And because of human conviction
You will always need more.
Allete Ives Oct 2015
Falling into apathy,
Is like a shoulder shrug.
There's no need to mind.
Apathy is as cold as old chairs,
Because it took time
Growing so empty.
having apathy is like-
I don't even care.
Allete Ives Oct 2015
You grow in the desert of my heart. Leaving a name to dust when death comes to a wayfarer on that barren land of love. A fantasy not known to reality. A lonely dance in the center of the room.
