Vertigo

Weakened knees
on firm, hard ground.

Futile footfalls
on sinking sand.

Dazed and confused
by the sights and sounds.

Losing balance
in familiar lands.

Bloom

So that my fist
would relent and bloom
like a flower
given rain and sun.

So that one day
it might unfurl
to willingly take what comes.

Enter

.
And I’ll show you
fantastical things.

Come into my head.

Know my wants
and desires.
Witness the height
and raging fires.

Incapacitated

My eyes can only scream

what my voice could not.

And my soul would only break

when my bones wouldn’t.

Melancholy

There is a song that I sing tonight.
Every night...

A song made out
of the sighs in my breaths.

Words heavy and laden
from the weight of my thoughts.

A tune forlorn - from the wrenching
of the heart.

A song that I’ve taken to.
A song entitled “Melancholy”.

On Fire

None could have foreseen

a time so dire.

For he is the man

who set himself on fire.

Loud

Read between the lines.

You’d find that the words
left unwritten
would scream
the loudest.
