Red Flower

Edward Jan 2019

Red Flower

A red flower,
Once pretty,
Lying down,
Petals torn,
Stem broken

Ear to Ear

Edward Jan 2019

Ear to Ear

don't be serious
you must try to smile far more
smile from ear to ear

Ravens

Edward Jan 2019

Ravens

ravens tear at me,
each clinging to their own piece.
rip me endlessly.

Nier

Edward Jan 2019

Nier

Emotion is not us,
You said frustratedly, but I,
As I was to die,
You wanted to save my shell,
The human part of you was why

Dark Eyes

Edward Jan 2019

Dark Eyes

I saw you across
The room, not turning to me.
To meet my dark eyes,
And whisper to me softly,
What all those lines tried to hide.

The Light

Edward Jan 2019

The Light

Sitting together,
Leaning close,
The electricity,
Lighting the neon,
In your eyes,
Gazing into mine,
Seeing nothing,
Which was all it took,
To turn off the current,
And **** the light

Blossom

Edward Dec 2018

Blossom

I must go.
As I turn, I see,
Hidden by my eye,
A blossom.
A beautiful, fragile blossom.
But the tree is dying.
I must go.

Black Dress

Edward Dec 2018

Black Dress

rush of a black dress
a face you looked away from
a smile never returned
