blue mercury
they tell you to play the game
but you hate it

it’s breaking your spirit
and you want to get out
of your head
but at least there you feel like
no one can get you.

or well
that’s what you thought.
you thought that
if you stayed in your mind
you’d be fine
but it betrays you

intelligent
existential
no good
get OUT of my head

please just get out of my head

the thing about fires
is that sometimes
you just have to watch them
burn

You.

You don't see what I see.
A beautiful human being whose body I'm eager to explore,
because a body like yours is one that I adore.
As we wake up next to each other, I see the sunlight dance off your skin begging me to come in.
Let me in.
Allow me to explore and feel every surface and crevice of your body.

And when we are Judged
The last question will be:

Were we possessed of ... or by
Our Humanity?

Being alone
isn't a bad thing
it’s just a new starting point
in my life
just to find my own strength.

The Queen Of Darken Dreams Poetic Judy Emery
If I could make a dwelling place
in your heart, I would
but all I could find is the rain of yesterdays;
You had lost your way
So now that dwelling place
has no room for love
the happiest days are long gone
the dark hours had come to you?
like a wild storm
Your name is marked in the dark
you have a way to bring on pains
you have power of the dark side
where love could never be
What made you like this ?
I know if anyone stands to close
you would make a lot of smoke
I can feel the essence of your power
but it’s not the kind I was looking for
you was once a true prince
and I was your queen
but now it’s all in dreams
things are never what they seem .

Your Colorful Life

Its different when you're with me.
Because all I paint is black and gray
Don't you agree?

Your smiles are filled with glee,
Like a finished canvas I daresay.
Its different when you're with me.

I make things a little blurry
Like an old painting that starts to decay.
Don't you agree?

When you're with them, I am filled with envy.
So colorful, so faraway.
Its different when you're with me.

I am a bit too gloomy
Maybe I should stay away
Don't you agree?

Your life is already a beautiful harmony
I'll just be in the way.
Its different when you're with me.
Don't you agree?

I Am Happy For You

I never expected to hear those words,
From you who I trusted, from you who I loved.
Yet I do not feel any resentment.
Was I broken too much?

Tears stream down my eyes,
As I watched you go.
Yet I continued to smile
As it was the only thing to show.

I welcomed the truth,
No matter how much it hurt,
Because that was when I knew,
That I was truly happy for you.
