Stay, my frigid heart,
the night-song will come again.
Winter will not last.

The winter's silence rings blaring anathema to those who dwell in sound.

Love letter

Our soft universe
had never known perfection
until it first rained

Lightning struck nearby, it blinded my eyes, and rang my ears like a bell.
I have never been so in love.

Anchored

Staunch, we bear the wind.
In all it’s whirling fury,
we are unmoving.

“Beautiful.” I weep.
My eyes set upon once more
by the sun’s virtue.

This one is more love-letter than poem

Grey memory

Long have I known fog,
his name, a penumbral thought.
Just like all the rest...

Thoughts have long passed through me like a rolling fog, hazy, and never long to stay. Longer have I wished for their lasting company.

Rain makes me feel safe.
I’ve long found home in the storm...
Why can’t it just stay?

I know it's selfish, but if I had my way, the rain would never stop.

King

King of the goblins.
How contends your pallid throne?
Was it worth your dreams?

This one's about me :)
