Silence is a gateway to eternity.

Forget the past
—and the future is lost

(Dreamsleep: December, 2023)
Grace Dec 2023
I speak so loudly
and in anger but you do not hear me
because in anger
I will hold my thoughts like breath
hoping, needlessly
that you will see and hear
my wrath;

only away does it subside into the atmosphere
Grace Dec 2023
burning in the cold,
breath heavy and thick like clouds
that keep us apart
not knowing is its own flame
and it burns wildly in my heart,
perhaps in spite or because of
you
Grace Dec 2023
Tired, dry, sick, and yet
the snow has never stuck
so wet
instead, it rains
or snows and melts
forget the muck
the pain is felt
without the Winter to deflect us.
Grace Dec 2023
A kiss to waver all contempt away,
a lovely flavour that no flower could convey.
To pluck its petals, like the strumming of a lyre,
a song, ephemeral but the loveliest of choirs.
to all those who make my heart sing
Grace Dec 2023
Wasps buzzing in figs,
a sharp sting for the sweetness
that gods claim to own.
