Noelle: Poems

21 Grams

Noelle Sep 2013

21 Grams

Differences abound in humanity
Unique individuals, we all are.

To judge your brother for lack of?

Differences abound in humanity
Uniquely identical, conceived by an artistic helix,
Eroded by experience

To judge your brother for excess of?

Before creation, before expression,
With humanity we all began – Exactly identical, our souls.

*Your brother you would be
Your brother you could be

A Lover's Insomnia

Noelle Sep 2013

A Lover's Insomnia

My bed comes alive at night,
Lonely and solemn, these sheets are for two.

My mind goes astray at night,
With whispers and wonders and I miss yous.

My dreams are of you tonight,
I lay in your arms - Blissful. Asleep.

Analyze

Noelle Sep 2013

Analyze

I question all sides of everything,
But I know that when I look at people
I can’t
For long
Because the gaze that I am met with is not yours.
And that is something.

Daily Observations

Daily Observations

He told me quite plainly he couldn't be read.
His hair was wound rather tight to his head.
And his eyes were a mix of blue, or maybe grey.

Distance

Noelle Sep 2013

Distance

six-hundred miles,
separate my Love and I



                                               ...but do I love him?

Lullaby for Syria

Noelle Oct 2016

Lullaby for Syria

"Shush now child, you lay your head down, go to sleep right on my chest. Bombs are ringing out the windows, rock us both to sleep or death. Feel the warmness, feel my smile, feel the trickle of my tears. Baby girl just know I love you, heaven’s gates are shining near."

I imagine this being sung to the tune of the classic Christian hymn, 'Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing'.

Memories not forgotten

Noelle Sep 2013

Memories not forgotten

Summer air
thick, hot
weighing down on me like,
smoke, that fills my lungs.

The sun shines sharp and clear
distorting
what is reality

Can you get,
lifted
on Summertime?

Shannadoa, laquadesh. Batta-anna, mlick ka dek.

Philly fickle ******,
Nickle dime dash,

Bickle bockle bash,
Sunny sun sunshine,
Beady brain bright,
****** lovey Mondays,
Matthew mum might.

Nie zapomniałem.

Noelle Sep 2013

Nie zapomniałem.

I want someone who belongs to themselves.
I want Nabokov, indulgence and ***** words,
like oil down a canvas.
Indulgence, and the way you press kisses up my spine,
like you want me to taste like your mouth the next time
someone kisses me there.

thoughts like fire.

Noelle Oct 2016

thoughts like fire.

My head’s like fire, my thoughts like veins, coursing through my body
but I feel no
pain.

Make me go insane. Make me call your name. Tie me to the bed, make
my legs like
lead.

Passion, passion, passion. ****, ****, ****. Shut the **** up
you stupid
****.

Nails down my thighs, fly on the wall, shake me, press me, slowly
down the
hall.

Sticky, sticky, sticky. Eat your heart out. Love me for my mind then
blow your brains
out.

Head’s like fire, thoughts like veins, coursing through my body but I
feel no
pain.

**Basic. Stupid. Simple, words. Go to bed your *****
*****.

Words are a value . values are a word.
Words are a value . values are a word.
Didn’t go to work today . didn’t say a word.
Didn’t find a value . value to a world.
Couldn’t find a placement . placements structure sane.
Little breeze of sunshine . sunshine structure sane.
