Mydriatics - Hello Poetry

After many hours of deliberation
about few things of great import
the sleep-deprived are haunted
now and again, "on earth as it is
in heaven", and will be forgotten.

So much so that tomorrow will
stare blankly into the mirror
and we'll feel lifelessness whisper
as I gaze into your constricted
pupils and pretend something is

there.

chemical reactions

Where coal gets pressed
And zippers - undressed
A diamond of red night's gleaming
How souls get stressed
To act chipper at best
But inside - a cauldron that's steaming
A raven has landed and soon will be near
Through mentality's bland, white sun
When the moon opens wide
And swallows the shadows
That's when they'll have the most fun

Broken Whispers

Find peace with your baffled mind
Induce equanimity in between your struggling breaths
Remedy the desolation with your flowing tears
Resign to the solitude with your dispirited shadow

Catch the glimpses with your swollen eyes
Wear a smile with your shivering lips
Seek solace in between your trembling fingers
Walk the steps with your hesitant feet

Gather strength from your shattered pieces
Feel your existence amidst your aching soul
Endure the sorrow with your feeble self
Preserve the love in your failing heart

Those That Wander

The sea has turned to glass
The sky so paper thin
I feel like I must walk forever
To keep from caving in

Madmen

Only those who have gone mad
Can understand the true beauty
of love
Those who have gone mad from the sorrow
Those who have gone mad from the heartache
Those who carry thousands of broken hearts inside their own
Those who care too much
Those who cry behind painted smiles
Those who sleep in empty beds
rather than in shallow skin
Those who dance in the rain instead
of complaining about the weather
Those that practice kindness even during their darkest hours
Those that belive magic, dreams, and wishes
Are necessities of life, even when they are againt the odds
Only madmen know
The hiden colors of love
The secret kiss
of eternity
Can find the lost
road of forever
So if I asked
Would you take my hand
And go mad with me?

Where Is Home?

Home is a lazy day
With earphones on
Sometime in May
When rain has come

Home is a warm bed
And a soft, cozy blanket
A waking yawn at twelve
When morn and noon meet

Home is in the midst of friends
Talking boys or latest trends
Where there is no bad blood
Only love's abiding bond

Home is in my dreams
Buried in faraway things
Things I never had
And might never will

[midnight stars]

and when you lay your head down,
and allow all of the dark thoughts to make you wish you were dead, as a slow frown appears upon your lips,

just close your eyes,
and simply think of me,
let me outshine all of that darkness,
just like the stars do in the midnight skies.

my friend and i haven't been able to talk as much, and i wrote this for him when we're apart.

Soundless Motions

´

You came to me
as a vision
as a mirage
as soft shadows
landing low

Warmly loving
the hot bouncy
paws
and their
delicate dance
across Dali's

Tangible
soundless motions
obssesive mushy
desserted sands
of time's

Kaleidoscopic
fractal falling

Swirling
back into
the theatre of dreams

Tuning a
migrating
midnight to
those silent, evanescent
melodies
yearning
craving
to be played
once more
and adored on longplays

Spiraling and spinning
in my memory
like a skilled
reindeer wafting
wet air through fresh
nostrils, a defiant elegance
fluttering around as colourful
wings move the magnificent
leap of a sinew lyinx
to tremble
among spring greenery

Got to develop gentle moves.
Silent. Soundless. Elegant.

Imagined by
Impeccable Space
Poetic soundlessness
