  Dec 2014 The Anonymous Joker
chimaera
grey cold like
sparsed cotton

thickness
of blank walls

preclusion
exclusion

the era before
your smile

the glaciers
are forming
02.12.2014
Shouting
Always angry
Bitter
Throwing punches

Always so apologetic
So sorry
For an existence
That was  
Never
Meant
To
Be
I've been writing such exacting words

Addressing questions

Too many of them

Where's the love
the fun

if it's all laid out in print

It's supposed to be shady
The elusive meaning


Darting

around



The lines.

Where's the fun if it's easy?
poeticize already ******
Tomorrow
I will be
Bigger
Better

Maybe this time
I won't run away

Head down
Hands trembling


Tomorrow,
I won't regret this

But that's tomorrow

Today remains
With all my worries
Insecurities and beliefs
My thoughts
Spiral
Off on a tangential course now

It will pass over me
And I won't be left untouched

But I will grow stronger
Through it all

I will become
The person
I want to be
In far-off tomorrows
(the one that doesn't have a million running shoes
a million blades and thorns
stockpiled
ready
waiting)

celebrated with love
fair eyes see beauty
only love, that never dies
