Aimée Apr 2020
Anger is solid, immovable, and sharp
The counterpart to soft Joy
Who can mold and shape any heart

Confusion howls and twists up the mind
While peace encircles
Whispering comfort, "all in good time"

Fear is plunging cold, shocking and deep
But Faith guides along
A time-worn trail, to float down like a leaf

Greed, the consuming burn, taking all it touches
While warm Charity, ignites understanding
in light, flickering brushes
We are singular beings in a dimensional world and so will always love in confusion
Aimée Apr 2020
I drank the ocean,
Down to the very last drop
But I still feel empty

I stand on the sun
Blind and burning
But the shadows inside remain

I watch the stars turn
In the black of the night
And see my heart reflected
Aimée Mar 2020
There's a storm in my head
A torrential downpour of pain
With flashes of rage
And thunders of despair

The streets are flooding
And the night is getting dark
And I can't turn the tide
I can't stop the heartache

I feel every emotion but joy
I know hundreds of thousands
Of words that mean pain
So why do they all feel hollow

My hand hovers useless
Above the empty page
Waiting for the storm drains to clear
So the words can flow free

But until then I drown
Aimée Mar 2020
When I was with you
Everything was confused
I can never recall
The during, just the fall
When everything shattered
And suddenly nothing mattered
I didn't think it possible
For it to go so Holocaustal
It was only after dust settled
And you were long gone in revel
When I was no longer smothered
That I finally discovered
That you were toxic not I
And all you words a lie
And even though you're gone
My heart still seizes at your song
And wonder if there's a place I belong
When I carry the scars of your wrongs
Aimée Mar 2020
I hate you

I hate you more than all the rest

Because you were more than all the rest

And hurt me the worse

That's what I want to say

But I can't

Because I still love the angel who ruined me
Aimée Mar 2020
I saw you today
And my eyes were totally clear
I saw you today
And they didn't fill with tears

Because

My heart felt you today
And it didn't ache and crack
My heart felt you today
And it didn't take me back

Because

My hands touched you today
And didn't long to linger
My hands touched you today
And didn't cling to your fingers

Because

My ears heard you today
And didn't hang on the sound
My ears heard you today
And I didn't hear the blood pound

Because

My feet passed you today
And didn't wait for you
My feet passed you today
And didn't run for you

Because

My mind thought of you today
And didn't drag up the past
My mind thought of you today
And told me it was over at last
It's a relief when your heart finally let's go
Aimée Mar 2020
To stand on a glass floor
And hear the crack of the ground

To sing your favorite song
And not to hear a sound

To greet a person you love
And have them ask you for your name

To think another an equal
And learn you're a piece in their game

To open you eyes wide
And not to see the light

To walk away from a problem
And later learn that wrong was right

To leave a loved one angry
And remember it was your last look

To discover an object's value
And be too late to return what you took
It was a dark night tonight. It made me realize how many of my actions are taken from fear. But anyway, I hope you enjoy
