A freshly blown breeze
creeping amidst the shivers.
My hands are burning.
David Oct 2024
Why do you look sad?
Staring with quiet eyes and
expressionless face.
David Oct 2024
Glimpses of lustre
exposed from a clouded robe.
Held by morning glow.
David Oct 2024
Splashes of gold stirred
into a midnight cocktail.
Bleary eyes shrouded.
David Oct 2024
Rooftops give stage to
an elemental concert.
Interlude awaits.
Anais Vionet Oct 2024
I’m sleeping in
just call me out
it’s the simplest kind of comfort
I do it for me
there’s a softness and care
my, that got so wholesome

I know, I should embrace hardship
adversity builds resilience
it’s darkness that reveals the stars
that last one sounds too good to be original
but I’m not researching it
haven’t you been reading?

I’m sleeping in fugaciously
and metaphorically.
If you’re in the water
it’s good to swim
otherwise
you could be writing.

BLT Merriam Webster word of the day challenge: 10/17/24
Fugacious =;&that lasts only a short time.    
I know what you’re thinking
I wish things could be
As simple as they were
Back then when I would
Pick you up at school
And we'd drive
All day long
Routeless
I miss being young and carefree by your side
Jeremy Betts Oct 2024
Don't do this
Don't be that
Basically
Don't exist
Unless
You can do this
And you can be that

Maybe just a persistent thought more than a poem
Bones Oct 2024
My alarm clock breaks
The numbers freeze forever
Time stops for us both.
