simmer

Lord
As I’m washed clean by your blood
Please wash my ways as well
Reside within me
Belittle my desires
Let
Your
Love
Encapture my whole being
Leave no room for worldly interests
I humbly beg O God
Please

Cry

Hanna

Cry

You are not alone

I'll listen until your tears give out

You're safe and sound

I swear that I won't let down

What's hurting you

I feel it too

I mean it when I say

When you cry

I cry with you

not in the fire

Kyla

not in the fire

the blood drips from my fingers
meets the blood on his palm
i hear the voice that whispers
behold- here i am

don’t touch me / touch me

Rastislav

don’t touch me / touch me

don’t
touch me.
not because
i break,
but because
i forget
where i end.

your hand
doesn’t hurt.
but it
shifts
the lines
between skin
and silence.

i want
to be
held,
but not taken.

i want
the warmth
without the aftersound.

when you
touch,
i disappear
into the outline
of your want.

i reach back
not to stop
but to
delay.

to fold
the moment
before it
becomes
mine.

touch me
but only
as question.

never
as name.

Rapture

Germaine

Rapture

before the sun explodes
on the sky line
can you
look in my eyes,

and tell me
your middle name.

and before the stars collapse
in the prairies
can you
dance with me,

give me
some peace of mind.

living poetry

Poetry should be taught —
But it's better to be tried.

Poetry can be taught;
But it's better to be lived!

Do you agree?

I'm Trying

I'm Trying

You said
You said each day I'm loving you less.
You just don't know(don't know)
I'm trying to love you more.
More than you might know.

I go out of my way to prove it.
Shocked that you don't see it.
That I'm trying to love you more.

Flowers, I give to you.
A sweet poem I write to you.
Even try to spend more time with you.
But still, you question every single thing.

I just know.
I'm trying to love you more.
But you are making it hard to keep trying.
Am I not there when you're crying.

I just know
I just know
I'm trying to love you more.

Good God

"Hey, God, why has my life been such a disaster?"

"Are you judging it by your failures or your achievements?"

Am I Not All That

Vazago d Vile

Am I Not All That

I sat,
spliff lit like a tiny sun in my hand,
and looked up.

To the stars,
to the void,
to the hush that hums behind silence.

And I asked —

In all of this,
this chaos and order,
this pain and pulse…

Am I not all that?

Wasn’t I born of stars?
A flicker from the great ignition,
dressed in skin,
asking questions fire once whispered to stone?

I’m not watching the universe —
I’m remembering it.
Living it.
I am it.

And you —
you reading this —
you are too.

Written while ****** and staring at the stars — a reminder that we’re not in the universe, we are the universe remembering itself. Nothing more, nothing less. Vazago thoughts.

For the best

If you come back to
find me dead, it's just because
I see what you meant

I won't
but I wish I would.
