Why am I still thinking about this, mysterious boy?
MsAmendable Apr 2015
Darkness falls like snowflakes
It drifts down soft around you
Cold and mysterious
Sleepless and delirious
In a shroud of wordless peace
And sweet release
Of distant far lands I venture;
To where I go is of mystery
Lands of freight and hopelessness there is

But, filled with gallant I go
Set with my bow and arrows
I lead off to forgotten lands

Sea of faces
So many names
People i'd like
To cross out on my list
This boy in particular
Shall I make him slowly suffer
Or die a quick painful death

I feel too much; emotionally/mentally
I'm constantly thinking about nothing and everything all at once
Why was I born with this blessing?
Why was I born with this curse?
Why am I like this?
I feel feelings that don't exist and
I fall in love with everything and
I'm constantly breaking my own heart
I feel like no one understands me andI don't know how I should
Feel about that
I just have all these thoughts and emotions inside of me
That I can only release onto paper and
It makes me feel alone and trapped and
Yet I push away everyone in my life
So they don't see this beautiful mess I've created
Of both happiness and sadness
I'm still trying to solve myself
Because I'm a Mystery

People fall in love
In mysterious ways
With you I fall in love every single day with you
The meaning of life is not to be discovered
Only after death in some hidden
Mysterious realm
On the contrary,
It can be found by eating the succulent
Fruit of the Tree of Life
And by living in the here
And now as fully
And creatively as we.

It's a cold, cold world.
Better be careful, little girl.
The earth will swallow you in whole.
Even in the comfort of your home.
Only the strong survive.
So where do people like me reside?
Starving for greatness in my purpose.
Cold night breaks me down to consider if it's worth it.
There's a demon inside to tell me otherwise.
Want to feel special. Want to feel alive.
Is there really a light?
Or have I been tricked by the illusion of life?
The fights in my mind of good and evil.
What to believe is not that simple.
Eyes sewn shut by the devil.
Suddenly my dreams are in trouble.
Is there really a light?
In the deep of night, out of sight.
A late night can drive you crazy. A poem dedicated to when all falls down.

In natures garden
we wonder, lost
unwinding paths,
haunted by the
shadows, stalked
by creatures of
night, all to look
up into midnight
seams, clouds
floating in lustrous
blue and a Cheshire
smile just for us.

There I was becoming apart of a time unknown to me, with a woman I had barely met. "I'm going to tell you a story.", she said.
"This sky you see above you was once a bright romantic vision to gander upon. I used to ponder  each night of all the lessons that could be taken from such a vast wondrous space,  but over time it darkened, you couldn't even tell the night from day. Only empty space was left. Yet, despite this , it's mystifying spell was only strengthened and my curiosity was brighter than ever before."
She spoke of the irrefutable wisdom each had to lend, how neither light nor dark were more significant than the other because they were indifferent.

That black sky that once shined incandescently became the first wonder of my world. My god, what a cold sight it was.
I was very sad about this story, I wrote so much down and it all got erased. I had to attempt to write what I felt before all over again. Was very difficult.
