Merry Everything
D Eaf Dec 2023
May this time live
Up to your definition
Of contentment

I hope you find comfort
In what is soul-stirringly
Sentimental to you

May your heart be sate
With gratifying peace
Of the past and present

I hope you find
Beauty in the moments
That go unnoticed

May your biggest gift be
The memories that will
Forever encapsulate your soul

Merry everything
A happy always

For the hundredth time
This has crossed my mind
Seven oceans
Winds, storms, swells

Will I ever find you?
Will the seas die down
And the current bring you in?

For the hundredth time
I've wished you were here
As I sit and watch the tides roll in

Ebbing and flowing
I watch them, hoping...
With every crash my heart skips

A

Beat

Hoping I'd see you on the horison.

Just like the tide drains
So does my heart

Once again it is a single row of footsteps following me home.

I am

Alone.

Disappointment
D Eaf Mar 2020
I have been blind
for all my life
What disappointed me most
Is that when I opened
My eyes
To see for the first time

Your colors were dull
And my disappointment
Great.
When life happens

Hold on
D Eaf Jan 2018
I am holding my breath
Waiting on you
I'd wait until death
My lips are turning blue

My vision is a blur
My body feels heavy
My brain feels numb
My fingers are tingling

My pulse weakens
Everything around me fades away

I
Gasp
For
Air

What was that I heard you say?

Echoes
D Eaf Dec 2017
The eyes are the windows to the
Soul
Once blue eyes now turned gray
An empty soul in array

The echo of my screams never stop
Through valleys and mountains
Once green
No lush now to be seen

The nightmare of inaudible screams
Is now a reality
My piercing eyes look straight through you
My windows are fogged up
And so is my soul.

Seasonal Love
D Eaf Dec 2017
Summertime, your love was pure
Like the sun you were not afraid to share
your warmth
Your warmth- a radiating, smouldering heat
between every sheet

Autumn came and I could see us
fall
Fall out of love.
Every leaf- a teardrop on the floor
I knew our love was no more

Winter froze my heart
For it was then when I missed you most
Like an iceberg
we drifted
far apart

Spring held promises of a new
beginning
A beginning without
you
For it was you that made me see
That I cannot love, before I start loving
ME.

— The End —
