"What a lovely thing this is... to triumph,"
I whisper as I sink to my knees on the cold hard ground, unable to cease the flood of anguished tears that flow from my face.
The problem with sharing a body
Is how hard it is to tell who you are
Tears are just fragile pieces
Of dreams broken and souls as well
You can pick them up and try to glue them
But will that ever be enough?

Nobody can turn back time
Chances lost, no heaven nor hell
We all look down, grasping pieces
Some get cut, my surface rough

Inside we go like there’s no tomorrow
Apart from another, locked in a shell
And so it runs, our precious time
Shortening lifespan with every cough

They emerge like we’re attached to them
But is there a chance to always tell?
There’s time for that, yet always tomorrow
It seems like nobody gets to laugh

And in the end the pieces will bring us
Back in time, for then tomorrow
We can bring them all we have, but
At night all curtains will be shut.
A poem from the 16th December 2024, starting from tomorrow I will post some new stuff again.
I really tried playing with the concept of time in this poem and also played with a new style of rhymes. Hope you like it!
With love,
Luna
there were so many words i tried to say
some good
some bad
but none could make you stay

the days since youve left werent easy
some were good
most were bad
everything felt uneasy

there are so many sleepless nights
none were good
it was always bad
tortured by nightmares at midnight

i miss you.
all the good,
all the bad,
make me feel blue
