Lyre.
Mia 1d
It was not but a secret
Her serenades are asleep.
Yet the breeze carries it,
Toned through wild hills.

It is no secret she remains worn—
Perhaps a thing of the past,
Where she lay—carolling
To winds of her wonder on surface.

A way is but a path to life,
Yet death doesn’t feel any less desolate.
The same lone lyre, played the very same.
Though, when truths to be told—
Being one with the mother seems
Quite peaceful.
The poem is a short inspiration based on the collection of Lucy poems by William Wordsworth. Particularly inspired by "A slumber did my spirit seal". This is my first one of many.

Riven~

Maybe it's our flesh that limits us,

Yet tearing it apart remains but a question.

I can't wipe your blood when mine runs red,
I can't piece you back when I lay a puzzle.
I can't drink in your tears,
When drowning calls my soul.
I saw a lyric somewhere about a line on tearing flesh. It felt so raw in a way I can't quite explain. This is short, but I hope it does justice.

Oh, for all a nights bliss,
A woke for them to make haste.
Stands them two, a gliss
For their strides, to be a waste.

There he goes, mine to love
With her hand in his
For his to mine, a torn glove.
was my eyes a miss?
Or his, a sharp trove ?

Would you think her hands are soft ?
That mine lays a thorn too deep
Would you think her hearts aloft
That mine lays far too deep?

There she goes, mine to wed.
With his ring in hers
For her to mine, a sharp lead
Was his tone a soft purr
Or mine a bit red?

Would you think his eyes a lot bright?
And mine lacks it's luster?
Would you think his charms a bit right ?
And mine lacks it's luster?

Oh, for all a night's bliss
A grave for them to make haste
Runs them two, a gliss
For their strides, to be a tale
This piece is one of my favourites ever. The idea was there in my notes app for a long time even the first stanza has. But it was just a few weeks ago that I finished it.
The story is an interpretation of Romeo and Juliet, a Dialogue piece between Rosaline ( Romeo's lover before Juliet and Juliet's cousin) and Paris (Juliet's fiancè ) who in this story stands in the top of a balcony watching the lovers flee. The poem is a dual pov.

He is, I am not.
Mia 22h
They know not, who he is,

his eyes a green, mine a shade dark.yet, when he runs, I hide the same.
They say he owns them, black locks.
yet, when they whisper
I brush mine aside.
In their odes, his knife becomes mine.
my hands, tainted a shade like his.
In their lores, I hold those hilts
yet, I know not its shade.
Perhaps a silver or a tarnished gold.
when he is locked, I see those bars.
yet his high is different, mine is void.
Now,
he screams, I weep the mare.
Knowing not his eyes a green stare.
