I just woke up
And I love you **no more
When you wake up one day unloving someone; ask and assess yourself, "is that true love?"

Love has two faces. One loves for the sake of the world's gravity and force; and the other with the Eternal Promise of the One sitting on the throne. Love is indescribable indeed, like He who has bestowed us every thing.

We love because He first loved us. - 1 John 4:19
the Sandman Jul 2014
Vile photos and sounds play on 'palace' walls;
mud in her fingernails form shapes of the night's sticky, grubby events-
a twisted, ****** Rorscharch-esque blot.
Knee-deep in grit and grime, soot on her feet,
she sludges on, puking night after night on assorted side-walks
with soaked, soily calves.

'Just pretty pictures' painted on a wall
show her a true reflection of her mind;
she seeks familiarity, hides/searches in them for herself.
In distorted jumbles, she looks for her kind.

The splayed stuff stutter and splutter
and stop and grind.

Insomnia and intoxication,
a victim of lack of inspiration-
life falls into a slow degradation.

Nothingness swallows all once more.
She thrusts against the shoddy shut doors
while the slimy sticky dross glues her shoes to gory floors.

-she trails off with a wince
at the hat man's scoff.

Foul filth fills the squalid air; and
sullied and smoky, sighing, she (s)tumbles
halfway to sleep.

Floral limbs paint pictures in these woods,
Overlooking the garden where evening now hangs it's hood.
Dwelling among the stones where we used to sit,
Longing and loving, I shall not forget!
And I'll always remember where your impure heart may lie.
Where the loveliest did bloom, and where the blooms did die!

We took this path once when it was green and blue.
We counted the flowers and beheld this picturesque view.
We also walked around my favorite tree, so tall and so old.
It still flourishes over the weeds, truth be told!
And I'll still remember where your impure heart my lie.
Where the loveliest did bloom, and where the blooms did die!

The ivy hangs itself around these gates so artful.
A dove slipped a vine around it's neck ever so mournful.
And I wish I could have stopped it and made it wait for the sun
To shimmer about this garden tomb to make these curses come undone.
But I'll always remember where your impure heart may lie.
Where the loveliest did bloom, and where the blooms did die!
Lyra O Jul 2014
I am a crevice.
Everyone steps Close—
never in,
always on.
How can you?
It's Too Small.
Nothing in it will fit
But It.

I am a cliff.
People are Afraid,
of course.
To plunge to their demise
by Accident.
But would they skirt the edge
court the precipice of darkness
if they didn't want to know
Where it Ends?
When it Ends?
How it Ends?
If it Ends?

Of course, of course,
they never find out.
They never Move.
Nothing happens.
It tends to happen.

Then I become an abyss.
People are attracted
to the Mystery,
but they know it's Dangerous.
So they never fall in.

People can be wise,
holes can be empty,
and vice versa,
and what other adjectives
have you.

It's all the same.
Those who Almost fall
only futher Rip
the fissures apart.
Nothing is filled.
Nothing is healed.
I
Was the one
Who strived until dim
Just to hide my story
Still, I know the pain won’t vanish

I
Was the one
Who believed in him
Just to make him happy
Still, I know the pain won’t vanish

Let me count
All the days
Monday until Saturday
They almost completed my week
Tuesday was an exception

Let me count
All the ways
My mind lost from yesterday
Vague scenes from a dream so unique
To me you are perfection

Your arms
Yes, in your arms
Is where I'd like to stay
Someday with gay
But I know that won’t happen - anymore

To the one
Day I met you
For now it is gone

To the first
Feeling I’ve had
Eventually burst

To the day
Our eyes locked up
This feeling so gay

To the air
We both breathed in
For now this ain’t fair

As I lay
All of these things
In a white casket
On a fine funny day
With my hand holding a basket
Of flowers that bloom only on May

I found this flower
This one, so puny
I took it for its beauty
Taught me about the power
Of something not to be
Taken only for granted
And dump if not wanted

And now
As I silently wave
And say goodbye
To the one
To the first
To the day*

I wish you
All the happiness
To fight that sadness
Blending in your hue
