The Sun warms us in her embrace
Then tucks us in with a blanket of stars
And leaves us with the romanticized Moon
But she always returns
Kissing us awake with her beams of love

How long has it been
since the day we met?
But not in days
in heart beats.
How has my blood pumped
for you?
How many notes
in how many songs
that now sound of hollow noise.
What amount of teeth
have slipped out
from the lips of a smile?
How many were a facade?
And how many more
must pass before
I may close my eyes
and learn to forget.
Nighttime feelings have awoken. Hope you are all doing lovely. We are together. Blessed be my loves.

I'm in
debt feeding
illness and
I'm too
mentally broke

Time
It gave me healing,
It gave me peace.
Time
It helped me sleep through it.
Sleep through the pain.
Sleep through the constant reminder that I was never enough.
Sleep through the thoughts.
Time
What would life be if I was stuck?
Stuck in that moment you crushed me.
Stuck in that moment you belittled me.
That hour?
That minute?
That second?
What would life be?
But life got better because I gave it

The title will not come
But the words flow fast
Stanzas breeze by
Poems progress
Short stories
Are written
As if I’m possessed
Prodigious outpouring
As if I am being chased by death
But the perfect unifying theme
Does not present itself
The art will not find its name
The work is left untitled
But it is finished all the same

here we write our epic
from first post
to last bugle fading
and all your readers
throw in a handful of dirt
the day you stopped singing
and turn away to their bowers
to continue in this stranger than fiction endeavour
writing out their hearts and minds one big poem stitched together
