Infinite

Infinite universes spoken of in a finite verse
It's an injustice of the one's life's lack of justice; one's curse
There's a means of escape with no desire to pursue
When torment keeps dawning, you let it seek you
It's not beneficial to erase the weight on your ankles
When you're free falling into despair regardless

Amnesiac's Curse

In ritualistic insanity, the amnesiac begins to wail.
He hears the symphonic tune of damnation.
A wicked chord struck on a lyre of bones.
As tears flow, the pain sharpens, his fingers split, adding thick crimson curdles to death's hymn.
The weight is bore, lightless eyes follow the ache of mortal fatigue.
This sad creature screams his terror, as he remember his ode.
Played from his own marrow, from his own calcified soul.

Picture Day

O, the struggles of the young 'adult'
Trying to fit in,
Yet somehow the 'social' cult
Takes away the souls that are pure
And curses them
Till they no longer endure.

Sonnet #14 Yes, end no

People seemingly vanish all the time
But where are they if you're in the same place?
And here I sit still writing within mine
Amidst the candles glow I see your face

There is no curse that cannot be broken
Your aftermath leaves etchings on my heart
That equates to what our love has spoken
The emptiness that feels tears me apart

But here I remain, still, right where I sit
Along on my hands I count the great stars
As the path I must now take back is lit
Back, once more, I go to where this all starts

What has been sleeps peacefully in the past
Tenderly taken by a love at last

House Made of Ice

There’s a House made of Ice
Haunted by sinful vice.
Wilting winter flowers
As frozen frost gate towers.
House is cold and empty
With no lustre of glee.

Lost in the fields of snow
Tears echo in sorrow.
Memories of trauma
Sneak behind like cobra.
House is inhumane
As relationships strain.

To those who reside there
Must be fully aware
There’s a secretive curse
In the House made of Ice.

Circle of Love

In the beggining,
the flower grows and blooms into beauty unmatched and unrivalled by even the greatest of sights.
It matures and the flowers are so incredible it holds awe from all around.
However it slowly dies.
Leaf, by leaf.
Petal.
By
Petal...

Until there is nothing left.
That is love.
sung by the birds,
whispered in the breeze,
spoken by my words.
But, of course,
never trust a poets words,
harmonious but sharp like knifes edge.
They look so pretty but cut so deep,
like a razorblade into skin,
as the blood dances in the light,
trickling into a river.
This. Is. Love.
Not your rom com fantasy.
Not your daydream.
This.
Is.
Love.

Sweet and true,
the gentle curse...

It ends and starts again:
The Circle Of Love

This is the cluster of texts i sent to my friend during a bit of a mental breakdown. I decided to use it as my first poem on here as I enjoy it when put together like this

Hex

Through her fingertips she casts a pretty little spell
It fills with words she feels about a petty little devil
Replaced by her blind rage, a hex slips past her lips

Never ******* a pagan witch

In honour of Samhain

Perpetual Curse

I placed myself second
Because I placed you first
Unconditional lasting love for you
My beautiful perpetual curse

I do not like who I was with you
Used to believe each lie you told
Put up with **** near anything
Long as I had your hand to hold

Staying by your side through Heaven and Hell
We struggled with your disease
Swear my pain was even greater than your own
Begged you to stop down on my knees

I asked how I could help you up
Held me and said "I don't know"
Promised with my hand on your chest
To never give up or let go

I won't let you know how deep it cut
To break the vow I strained to keep
How could I stay and watch us **** ourselves?
When I woke up and you were still asleep?

Sacrificed so much for you
Begging one time you'd realize
I CHOSE to walk behind your shapeless shadow
Knowing destination was destined to be my demise

I wish I had not of trusted you
The one that was not supposed to harm
Wish I could trap naivete
Before you held my foolish dreams in your arms

I long for joy I felt when we were new
As our corpses deteriorate
I am now aware of the hazard loving is
Your heart hangs on my happiness, a very heavy weight

I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss.

You ???

I wish , I could be wicked
I wish , I could not care
I wish , I could be mad
I wish , I could show you
just once
how you hurt me
left me in despair
not a word shed
not a even a good bye
there's nothing , I could wish more
then , I hope karma slaps you like a *****
That's my curse , I give to you
cause your not a man
your who ? ??
