Ofelia Rose Jun 2013
Now
A pensive presence
With velvet eyes
That lure you in
With passionate
Hidden essence
Beyond the flesh
Within the soul
I'd like to see you
Through glass
Inside a watch
Against the clock
I wish not to wait
For any demise
Take off the guise
Life is lingering
Stagnancy diminishing
By my fists
I'll run to you
In any storm
Against the mist
I want you now
Today
Tomorrow
Forever
Without sorrow
On my skin
Within my bones
Love lavishes
When we allow it
And I've made my choice
The cards are here
In your hands
Now
Ofelia Rose May 2013
Her head in your palms
She's thrashed around
A rag doll in despair
On stained cement
A lingering stench of oil
Feet upon her flesh
Hot from the blood
Rushing to her wounds
And the rain pours down
Salted skin burning
Drying up in result
She's the desert
In the forest of her fear
A dog in a cage
Howling for release
Shaken from the rage
Torn from the mind
Then the music plays
Ants within her nerves
She attempts to inhale
But the air is stale
The lungs are blue
She craves an embrace
A shelter from the hurricane
Then it all subsides
Intertwined in smoke
She found the calm
The ocean breeze
The dew of summer morning
Ofelia Rose May 2013
In my delusion
Words will bind
From pen to paper
Raw with insecurity
The truth is here
Resting in my bones
And breathing through
My every pore
My tongue has no chain
And will dance the steps
Of the songs in my mind
Like my body
These words move
They flow and pour
A waterfall in a garden
Hidden in my thoughts
Revealed in naked disposition  
The dance of my insanity
Put before my eyes
My human tendency
I'm awakened
By my own dream
I can see through the paint
I feel it all now
As hot as the sun
I've burnt the lies
And now I'm ash
Blown into the world
Not an ant
Just the kiss in the wind
Ofelia Rose May 2013
From my head to my toes
I want to feel your love
In every fiber of my being
In every curve of my physique
And every imperfection I hold
Fill my lungs with your sweet breath
And leave your taste upon my tongue
My bones they quiver in your hold
So love me boldly, strongly
      Faithfully
Crash into me like ocean waves
Pull me like the moon of the night
Take me as your own
And breathe me into you
I want to be your everlasting lover
The light in your darkest days
And the warmth of winter cold
To be a fire in the water
That we are swimming in
The only air to bring you life
Let us become a single entity
In all this chaos of the sea
Be the salt upon my skin
To drink the flesh I'm living in
A spirit inside your own
We can be the lovers no one has
      Ever known
The dust between our bones
Linger with me here
In the stillness of our love
To be with you is all I need
So love me please
From my head to my toes
Ofelia Rose May 2013
These winds they crash into the sea that I have made into myself
Water salted, pulled and pushed to form the waves of all my limbs
I've died a thousand times before, drowned solely by my own accord
To hit the sand with every strength and force behind my every bone
Only to erode the grains of all the sand and stone I've stole
Not for crystals to be formed or treasures to be left behind
But to take what I have lost in burning wounds beyond my mind
To try and mend myself
To be the one I long to be
Ofelia Rose Apr 2013
The whirlwind it pulls
 This skin around my bones
Twisting my weak corpse
Crippling my body 
Drowning all my thoughts
Erasing the torment 
That you left in my mind
I can freely drift
Into the clear sea
Through an  inhalation 
Smoke beneath my wings
Where time dissipates
So I soar as a dove
Under the morning sun
And live on white clouds
In a lovely whirlwind 
Of prophesied demise
Ofelia Rose Feb 2013
If I said you mean everything to nothing
Would you believe me if I said that was me?
I am the empty null within your soul
The missing key you dropped
Lost in the muck along the trail
Drained by the rain
In a stream along the weeping willows
If I said you mean everything to nothing
Would you say I am that very thing?
The darkness in the night
Still and cold with a silent fight
Well look at me now
Right in my hazel eyes
I want to be your nothing
You are my everything
I want to lie in your fields of wheat
And be the purest nothingness
Not the void, but the peace
The nirvana you meditate to achieve
That is me
That is what I want to be
That is where we can be free
So I say,
You mean everything to nothing
Please believe me
Take my hand
Let’s be everything to nothing
Inspired by Manchester Orchestra; Everything To Nothing. Give it a listen. Amazing band, amazing song.
