Ylzm 2d
Quietly, ordinarily, and without heralds
It arrives, and you know—the truly good;
And you run after it, to fully grasp and hear
Not in full understanding yet, but it feeds,
Every moment: ever richer, ever illuminating,
Ever the more profound; mutually enlarging
All that's heard and known darkly from before
And Life! ever the brighter, the exalted, and the unspeakable!
Madeon 5d
I see the cracks,
the broken lies,
but still,
your voice calls me blind.

One day,
I’ll break free—
but tonight,
I fall again.

My thoughts became dangerous
Because I fell in love
I don't even know what their voice sounds like
But without them my heart is torn in half
I never touched their hand
Love is another mistake
All I know is that they have beautiful hair and nose
And that our hearts are not close
I think our souls are connected, but I'm afraid to admit it, so I wrote a poem about them

His beautiful voice!

Could he perhaps be gargling --


honey every day?

silent strength within,
words and bodies claimed in vain
minds untamed, fierce free

she doesn't know how much her words hurt
she shoves them down my throat
she puts my hand around my mouth so i can't spit it out
she loops around my throat
until i choke up and my thoughts turn purple.

Channel the grace
Feel the pace
I stood in their place
I thought I recognized the space.

Shiny isn't always gold
Or so I've been told
And death truly is bold
Grabbed my soul and turned it cold.

Got sold sins painted as dreams
Had to have it by any means
I let him have my soul
Only one of us is getting old.

My voice as a weapon
Loaded guns with demons I couldn't let on
And I'll show you hell and fire
It's now, not just a desire.
