Who are you?
Who are you?
Who am I?
I couldn't tell you.

I am a shapeshifter.
I have many hues.
My emotions depend
on the feedback of you.

If you love me,
I will shine.
If you play coy,
so will I.

Hurt me,
go ahead and try.
I will turn dark
and blend into the night.

You'll never know
what character I am.
You'll never know
because I don't even know
who I am.
Wow! Thank you, everyone, for the kind words. I've never felt more at home than with Hello Poetry and the people it comes with.

Unburden my Heart
The very one that used
to Beat so Fiercely for You.
Unravel my mind,
and Reclaim every crowded thought
I hold on To.

Take away the light that once
Shone in my eyes
Rid me of these cruel Sands of Time--
Flowing endless as the sea,
Seize my tumultuous Soul--
****** it away from me.

Take away all nostalgic recollections
both the good and the bad
Steal away with my fractured emotions--
Those I wish I never had.

Take away the love I can no longer Give,
Take away my Fight, and my Will to Live.
Remove every aspect, Swipe every lingering Lie,
Rob me of the Crushing Weight
of our Final Goodbye.

Unhinge All my Sorrow
Release All my Hate
Strip from me from All this Pain
That I feel so Late.

Take back our First Hello
Take back our First Kiss...
Wipe away this Accursed Phantom--
The constant Taste of You worn upon my Lips.

Reacquire Every Intimate Moment once Shared,
Every deep breath, Chaste touch;
Fingers that once combed
Longingly through Raven Hair
.

Take away the failed notion of Us
To make room for a Solitary Me,
Take away how things once were
And leave behind what must Be.

Detach your Essence from my Spirit--
So Broken and Weak,
To Allow myself to swallow Selfish Words,
Words I can no longer Speak.

Pull every Volume of our shared story from my Shelves,
So that you may set every page ablaze
And leave Nothing
But Myself...
To pick up a pen
And Begin
A
New
Page.
That One K Kid Aug 2017
When the water flows
It runs with rippled chaos
And endless beauty
The blue body reflected surface
Crashes to white against
The hardened rocks of death
Yet it still sprints at full speed
Despite the river's debris

The persistence of the current
Enlightens the perseverance within me
She is an open book...
In Quantum Physics
Written in Chinese
