The fallen knight

Who would have thought, he would be a fallen knight,
the once brave and mighty star has now fallen to his ashes.
All his praise has slowly been buried deep in people's minds,
as now he has become a fallen knight.
The one who once was hailed for his feats by the world,
and was in full glory, mortified by praises
has lost all of his praises and gloriousness.
As now, he has become a fallen knight
                                          
                                                                ­  __ Tess
The poem is painting a vivid picture of a once-renowned knight whose glory has faded, leaving only echoes of past triumphs. The poem shows the reader the tragic decline of a once great warrior—his pride and praise now lost to memory. The imagery of ashes and buried accolades evokes a somber reflection on how fame and honor can slip away, even for the mightiest.

As my dreams play
vivid images of a future
I'm yet to mold
my brain cries in silence
as in my hands, wet clay
is all I hold

Next to you,
I might stay a little longer
Next to you,
I might talk a little more
Next to you,
I might say things, unlike before

Next to you,
the words of the crow
soften like the dove
Next to you,
my heart aches with love

Next to you,
I silently cry
for at the end of it all
Romeo and Juliet
die.

Am I pretty like crotchet
because my mind's in a knot?
or am I a billionaire
because I have a penny for every thought?
Am I the nemesis of time
because I think too quick or as slow as
the last drop of lime?
None.
I am my mind's
the mind's not mine
But one day, they shall intertwine and
we shall be fine.

my body was once a temple to Daphne consecrated,
got razed by your sinful touch,
an ingenue bearing the grudge.
ephemeral eudaemonia, sempiternally anesthetized.


crimson substance will gush out from my lips,
running down my ******* and hips
it will splatter my ankles and thighs,
retracing the marks of the night you eroticized.


same old scars were once covered with epidermis,
petrichor smell, decorated with the salt of my tears.
backsliders will cry at my vault, murderers won't go to court;
left with a soul reduced to the coagulation of common thought.

Wake up and I swallow
Instagram reels and dry pills
to help feel less hollow

Bite into tender flesh
sip on my blood coffee
their pain is still so fresh

New phone every new year
six marketable colors
screams fall on a deaf ear

My hair begins, thins out
checking all the labels
ingredients I do doubt

All we do is consume
no matter what the cost
dead families, no tomb

Wake up and listen in
They don't care about us
Money hungry eat skin
Reading The ****** words of Ginsberg at dawn
Hedy Nash, John
You made it through deafness and insanity
To be finally recognised late in life
For your- now, but very much then- undeniable genius
And this fills me with so much hope
Though I still silently ponder death every breathing second of my life
The lleH I went through is obnoxiously Borin g compared to the mania of Allen, Sylvia and Kerouac
Which they painted with seductive/disturbing/seductive/mad words
I'm young and deeply scared
I'm young yet deeply scarred
I want to see it all in the next minute then be gone
I do eat people
sometimes, they escape
they knock at the door
impatiently tapping my
the oak wood, their feet
humming a tune
that is completely,
utterly empty

I am locked up in the mad house
and for good reason too
When I let people in,
I close the door
When you step through
the doorway
I
Can't
Wait
any longer.

Choking on fears.
Fighting for oxygen.
Bringing my eyes
all in view once never seen.
My voice has no power
Questionable feelings, no power to scream.
The need to breathe
Nothing more than
product of a dream.
Scratches running down my arm
Numbing my body.
Silhhouette of the beast
Disturbing my peace
Trying to consume my soul
Unobtainable in solace
Reality repeats, all is lawless
I am motionless in
an unstable transition.
The world of the in between
The dead and the living.
Vulnerable in astral world
Connection to ancestors in deep sleep
The past or the future of possibilities.
My essence roams freely.
Disconnection from all of me.
I can't feel you there.
Where are you?!
