Poems
Dec 2013
These Gifts are Reserved for the Deserved
Heart, Please stop pounding,
Stop reminding me that I am real.
Stop the flow of purity
I do not deserve such respect.
Knees, please give out
Beneath me I wish to lay
Take me out at my trunk
I do not need to stand.
Eyes, please close forever
I cannot see the beauties offered
They are invisible in darkness
I do not need to see.
Hands, please ball into fists
Drive yourself full force
Deep into the hardened ground
I do not wish to touch.
Body, please fall down,
Hands and knees in dirt
Eyes unused, heart slowing...
Already, I'm forgetting how to feel.
