Poems
Jan 2014
Portentous
Haunting and longing
entangle my arms
limbs stretching so far
but they don't even match my height
We might reach for stars
but you
you could obtain cosmos
It's wrong, too strenuous
Maybe I can
Moreover do i want to?
No. no no no
I'm gasping
Simple is what I dream about
Haa Hah
I love my dreams
perhaps because they are unobtainable
and no matter how often
You can, you will!
I can/andwill not
But tonight these sheets are too bright
I see them gleam in my darkness
It crawls beneath me
"Look at me! Your blank canvas!
- paint the world."
I let darkness devour me.
This is my apocalypse of shadows.
She could have been so much more
what drove her to madness
nobody comes back from an unbalance
such as hers: pitch and shimmer
This is my dream
I've settled in satisfaction
and I adore it all
I cannot recall a time I felt more alive.
Haa Hah Hah
...I cannot recall daylight
hmm? what importance does...
Shhhhh
, whisper my shadows
*come deeper.
- because sometimes encouragement turns into pressure, and backfires
