i disagree
when people say that this world doesn't have magic
would you say there is not something enchanted
about stars sparkling like glitter and dust in the air
moons and streetlights in likeness being beacons in the darkness

it's 1am and there are people awake, everywhere in the world

for a second,
it feels like everyone's listening to the same song
i am charged with the same energy as everyone and everything
i am connected to magical ley lines and spell undercurrents
there's nothing like this connection running deep to rune collections

it's 1am and i'm still awake, i am the world and the world is me
based on thoughts that came to me at 1am, despite not writing at 1am.

dorm room
quiets down,
my own mind
grows too loud

anxieties
gnaw and tumble,
overdrive
makes me stumble

goodnight moon,
good luck to you
I'll be up
to see sunrise through

Bright lights shine a silhouette and show the glowing eyes of dark souls
in a frenzy of rapid motion i feel the pulsing  of the bass drum the screaming of the cymbals and the gallop of the toms this is no energy you can escape from it creeps between the crack of every dream and the dark of every nightmare the animalistic ties you have will take you over until the drums stop and show is over

it's night now
and events have stopped.

Stillness evades the froth of evening
calm leather moves none under the fabric.

This home -- older than our world -- flushed
with wisdom -- flushed with glee -- flushed
with the violent storm of transience and
correction -- eyesight jiggled and adjusted
for new intentions -- meaning frisked for
rocks on a Boeing --

it's night now
and events have stopped.

you have stopped.

I have stopped.

Wash away the makeup
The paint of another day
Wipe off the fake smile
That hid all of the pain
Farewell to the laughter
That stopped what you had to say
And greet the tears of nighttime
Which company held at bay.

It's late at night and I can't seem to sleep
I'm thinking about the first time we ever did meet
I saw you standing there
Right in front of my chair
You even curled your brown hair
To this day I remember what you wore there
Skinny jeans and a jacket
And of course you wore your attitude too
Then when you talked
My mind didn't know what to do
I had read all your texts to me until that point
In a voice that belonged to a movie star I had a crush on
You are a movie star in your own right
And you shine in your own light
As nighttime ticks on
I lay awake in my bed
and just think of you.

Its the middle of the night
And I find me missing you
I really don't like this feeling
What can I do
Maybe after all
I'm not over you
You say you don't have feelings for me
But I can feel it from you
Don't give up on me just yet
Because I'm the one choice you won't regret
