I have never walked the sands
of that far away land
Where black clouds might
seep into my soul
Leaving its stain in my thoughts
and its knife buried in my back

This camouflage disguise burned
under my skin

Losing sleep.

Forever a battle in my mind
red vs. blue
Which shade are you?
Michelle Morine May 2020
Stealing my soul
forever lost in eternity
locked in place
madness grips me
an enduring fear never ending

A face of stone
the cracks won't show
a river of stars lost
in the night
reasoning with myself
as I melt into nothing.
Michelle Morine Mar 2019
Time grips my reality
Blending the hours for years
I can hear the gaze in your eyes as
they softly stare.

Tall towers of stars
build these gravity walls between us
as I navigate this ship of sails
through the nights sky to breach
the edge of your heart
causing a waterfall
of space dust particles
to pour over us

Leaving us tracing our scars
and sharing our broken memories
that now lie beneath
these gravity walls.
Michelle Morine Oct 2018
Sounds of souls intertwined
  I'll step this way to you
Torn from my heart
  to write love new
Painting your scars
  along the sky

Raging fires run through
  your veins
Singeing my skin
with your touch

Yet,
  from this fire, there is a glow
  to warm the cold in me

And yet,
  from this star, there is a shine
  to bring a light
  to the dark in you

  Solar clouds in this depth of moonlight
  bring questions burning in me.
Michelle Morine Sep 2018
Misplaced pride against these pages
High above the throne of all nebulas
open to the senses
true to the stars
a longing for you

The faint smell of incense
casting shadows on my soul
chanting incantations
next to the soft glow
of solar flames
burning down
my memories

Medications running out
Now all I have is you

Burning daylight
smoking on it's embers
a thoughtful reminder of my king
Michelle Morine Sep 2018
Upon those lips
behind your eyes
I'm caught in a snare
short of breath
I can't help but to stare
feeling my way though the dark
a familiar path stitched on my skin
Stealing myself from this world
hiding from the pain
Upon those lips
behind your eyes
I'm caught in your lie
Michelle Morine Apr 2018
I wonder
as the wind calls
and the night steals
the blue from the sky
this thunder
I'll sit here alone
in the shadows
I can feel something
rising from within
behind my eyes
then nothing
As familiar ghosts haunt me
I try to find you
you're there
I wonder
I'm not afraid
only a little
yes I wonder
