Jim - Hello Poetry

Jim Mar 8

It was a Tuesday when it happened
You walked through the door
as if I was never here
As if we never were

I counted the times
the acacia tree branch knocked
on the stained glass window by our bedside
I hoped it was you knocking
through that door on a Tuesday morning
because I am still here

Another Tuesday
my eyes still locked on the floor
where your shadow used to be
when you walked through that door
as if I was never here
because we no longer are.

null & void

when i bite my nails
it means i’m anxious
by anxious, i mean
'what the hell were you doing?
it took you 3 minutes to respond.
don’t you like me anymore?'
when i ask you
if you don't like me anymore
i mean
i’m back to being lackluster
by lackluster, i mean
'hey! here are my stars.'
and you'd ask, 'Where?'
on my palms
i’d show you my insides
and you'd finally notice
'but wait,
aren't those blackholes?'
by blackholes, i mean
my pupils are just too dark
that you'd get siphoned
into the nothingness that is my eyes
and by nothingness, i mean empty.
by empty, i mean

here is a place

~

here is a place
my heart comes to mourn;
a place where these thoughts
are seldom my own.
a place frozen in time
your face covers these walls;
a cold lovers waltz
still haunting these halls.
a window through time
i am left to adore;
here is a place;
i will love you, once more.

~

i hope your still smiling, wherever you are.

I don’t write to make you feel pain
I write with hope you may better understand my soul

~

that is what keeps me
awake almost every single night
not the moments i felt weakest
not the times i hurt most
but the feeling of losing you
because i was lost in myself

~

~ i hope in this life or the next you can forgive me.

THE DARK KNIGHT

There was a knight
From a far away land
who fearlessly fought
with the king’s demand.
Slayed two dragons
With only one hand.

The Kingdom rejoiced
held a feast so grand!
While lovely ladies
remained in trance
To marry this knight
Was their ultimate plan.

Sure!
This knight would marry
If only he can
For at the end of the day
He sleeps with a man.
