you noticed.

if nothing else,
if we will never be more
than the faint wonderings
of what could have been.

even if this is as far as the story goes,
at least once, just once,

I was seen
you know things about me that I don't even notice

you have to be inspired to write
you have to be motivated
you have to have a reason
but my life is art
my words are *****
my chest is heavy, but
art is bad and good
it is the secret of life
and you know what I say about it
  make your death a result of your art

you open your eyes
you are alive and present
you look in the mirror
you see yourself and say
'' I won't be good today "
"but someday darling" says the mirror
"you wont see yourself in me"
"you will see the devil instead"
Erin Suurkoivu Jan 2020
The times have me gobsmacked,
petulant observer, no more endearing
than anonymous audience.

My own visions, shadows on cave
walls, storytelling secret
animal lanterns.
Matteo Palermo Dec 2019
The words you're meant to hear
For one reason or another
Won't come to fruition
Is it for the fear of everything I've imagined?
Or the ugly truth that hides beneath.
Both options don't seem plausible
In my head
So I'd rather get stuck
Somewhere in the middle
Grey Dec 2019
I wonder:
What are you hiding?
Because your eyes are so bright,
your smile so sincere,
your joy so prevalent.
How can it be real?

And if it is, what are the rest of us missing?
