Awoken.

Restlessly comes the passion
pouring out of me like the moonlight
even if we were to never speak again
something inside me has been awoken
the time of mundane long forgotten.

I wish to gaze at the universe with you
the possibilities under the sky eternal
like a wave the calm rushes over me
resonating unlike ever before
felt by this skin and these bones.

Startling sometimes the stars in my eyes
hardly daring to imagine the reality
of symmetry and solidity
so perfectly we intertwine
with pure, white light.

How intriguing to comprehend
what causes the symptom of small butterflies
spinning around in dizzy circles
half asleep, lucid dreaming
dancing with smiles on their wings.

I can no longer hide
the desire you inspire
the symphony of epiphanies
the lullabies of butterflies...

even though my life before was tragic
every little thing you do is magic
my feet can hardly touch the ground
to cheesy rhymes and 80's lyrics it seems I am bound

because of you I am focusing on the brighter side
no longer holding onto all the moments I've cried
over all that is forever damaged and lost
but I intend to hold onto you at any cost.
cheese.

I like 10 word poems because it forces you to summarize your thoughts  to the point where you're really only saying what you mean.
Maybe I should try using that same theory in my own life, haha.

I wish I didn't know you
but it hurts too much when I don't
forever lost in this paradox
you keep slipping and making me watch
because I could never help you
you are too far gone

circling the same questions in my mind
not being able to answer just how we got here
thinking about you makes me sick
especially knowing how much time I have spent
waiting, understanding, giving you chances
it should have killed me

I may have lost all reasoning as to why I exist.

I watch you in stop motion.

Love-
ly
dress,
I
must
con-
fess,
I probably
won’t
remember it
at all.

They’ve been trying for a while now
to anchor you down
tie you to the anvils of atoms and silk

I’ve been telling them for a while now
you’re extra-planetary
you won’t fit into their egg cartons

your first appearance
was marked by a fire
engulfing any earthly
binding or chains

You’ve been burning for a while now
with unlikely alchemy
with flames that repeat my exhaling

We’ve been missing for a while now
lost in each other
away from the world of atoms and silk

All these pieces making up who I am
winding up like a clock that ticks
fighting for the longest time
to keep everything inside
not sure what to make of it
I wish I could just...
