you said,
"I feel very
observed"

perhaps because
you're an unsolvable mystery
a dazzling wonder to behold

I can't help but analyze
every angle
every clue

you're captivating

just please don't scurry away
from the eye of my scrutiny
when all is said and done
no need to pick your poison
'cause that tongue of yours is troublesome

then, you’re dead and gone
cause of death was hoped
all ‘cause you drunk on red and smoked for fun

a warm voice tone was your cool undertone
yeah i know we're done, i self note
yeah you weren't the one, but i'm still - (go)

running on your mouth, you're
running on my skin, ya/ and
bite me 'til i need (until i need, the antidote)
your hands on me, yet Love hands me
warning notes

so say tomorrow
that we'll both grow
yet i've been throwing dead flowers you gave me
i care 'bout ya' baby,
but better done trying
so spare, the letters
that you’ve been writing (that you wrote)
to save me
i care 'bout ya' baby
but please i'm done waiting
for you to love me

so say tomorrow
that we both know
that i've been writing just to save me,
writing just to save me

you left me on read and into your comfort zone
yeah i know we're done, i self note
yeah you weren't the one, but i'm still - (go)

runnin' out of love, you're
runnin' low on chances
'bout to drive to you (but when i step on the gas) and
i have my hands on my wheel of my car, yet all i see are
warning signs

bridge-
no matter if you scream
loud storms within my soul
you would still calm me
no matter when i'd breathe
you'd still leave me breathless
poem needs to shed/show positive light to the situation / person

for all i know
you spoke my love language at best
all in all,
you spoke my love language at best

I see, means my ego pre-going:

Just Color coding as another motif to talk with
No Shovel loading this buffer coating some mock spit

Of Sirrus winds and summer loving...
Was it other living or utter loathing?

No component, Native I'm Buffaloing
Icarus took the fire and I took the flowin

I name you Umbra, the thief of light
Imprisoned you are from whence you came
Nothing but darkness and most fearful night
Horrors define and crown your caliginous name

You sought light upon me, for you saw the sun, the stars, and the moon
In a second, these creatures were pilfered from my kingdom
Your darkness like epidemic grew
I was blinded by your color and you stole all hue.
For those of you who play Child of Light, this poem is inspired by it. I hope every poet in the world would take the opportunity to play the game.
Woke up with headache
How day usually starts
The pain within my cranium
Does not compare to my heart

As tide creeps slowly in
Hope slyly sneaks out
The list of things I'm not
All I seem to think about

My voice dropped an octave
Sound I've grown to hate
It's just another line
In list of unattractive traits

I might be an artist
Good with words I am told
The descriptions I paint aren't pretty
Because world has made me cold

Life getting exhausting
Fed up with each breath
Have no choice but to carry on
Only cowards escape through death

Faces wearing smiles pass
Deepening my frown
Others make it look easy
Depression keeps me down

Darkness spreading as disease
Throughout expanse of my soul
My body feels like it's swallowed
By bottomless black hole

Turning corner after corner
Never reaching the maze's end
I get more and more lost
In labyrinth with every bend

Not sure if poor judgement to blame
Or the culprit is destiny
Either way stuck as a prisoner
Of everything I will never be
I had so much potential but I threw it all away
The wheresoever, notwithstanding, when,
Is lost in the Insomuch's end.
Those vacillating on vaccines, I'm told,
Are bereft of emanations for the old....
A lack of understanding of the pain
Derived from work and then deprived of gain?
Derived from understanding on the shelf
Just consumed, in your preoccupations self!
However...
Whosoever whatsoever, then,
Go vaccinate, child,....it's definitely Zen!

Foxglove, Taranaki NZ
27 October 2021
A view of all the city
Looks like ant farms far away
And all of its complexity
Where some might go astray
Take in all the scenery
The horizon, passed the bay
Breathe in and get comfortable
And know that all will be okay
In the end, nothing more matters
Up the hills with rolling hay
Far away from city life
Is where I want to stay
I noticed that I only write poems
Whenever I get to lose my courage to vent,
Fail to escape from the clutch of rock bottom,
And have no one else to comfortably talk to.

And with the quicksands of changes
That I have never opted to be stuck in,
I guess I am bound to exhaust my hand
Writing poems till the end of my days.
The seasons shift
Fade away
Gets a bit colder each bitter day
Moment after moment slips from my hand
Stuck here struggling to understand
You moved on but I'm paralyzed
Guess by now I should have realized
Start walking forward
Turn around
To past it seems I am hopelessly bound
Loving you making me lose my mind
Still I am unable to leave memories behind
You lost yourself somewhere along the way
Why am I still addicted to who you are today?
Is it because I have forfeited so much for you?
Because you're familiar?
Have no clue
When will soul finally know serenity?
Life plunges me deeper into insanity
Why is the universe unfair?
World so cold
I had it all
Now nothing to hold
Begins wearing heart's patience thin
I start to bleed and am left with no skin
Falling backwards into pit of insecurity
Every minute without you feels like eternity
I wish I would have savored the minutes I spent with you more
