Poems
May 2017
the door to the window
the rain falls where the petal's sleep
of a flower, not yet ready to seed
and i see what i cannot free
a dream not steady to breathe
that will blossom once it has bled
with all the shapes and figures
we keep deep inside our heads
i was never ready to leave
but there was nothing else
i could ever be; a heart
on an island full of stone
even if i could erase myself
there'll always be what i've known
and it will keep on screaming
long after i'm done and gone
back to the unknown
with all that has grown
and i know I'll still be there,
waiting for the world to ask
reflecting on my face
i see in the reflection;
as the world grows dark
through the glass
and i see the door to the window
it's closing in on me
it's closing in on me
It's eating the view
it wasn't build to last
there's nothing outside but the rain
but the pain and tears blurring
my eyes at last
there's nothing but the veins
of a storm that's about to mourn
and there's this forest
inside of me
that just wants to hunt and roam
and i see the rain falling,
the rain falls where the metal weeps
of a flower, not yet ready to be freed
but i see what i can free
the door to the window
it's closing in on me
but my mind has left
in midst of the clouds
where life is born
far away from myself
and for every time the storm bleeds
a flower will breed
and piece by piece
the door will start to fade
a forest shall be made
as wide as the window can be
as vast as you can see
as alive as you want to be
the door to the window
never had a key
it was just us,
filled to the brim
and we couldn't keep it in.
It's always a story with a beginning and an end. #author #dark
