Luscinia Axiom Dec 2024
I long for the midday breeze,
Brushing against my skin
Gently caressing,
Softly whispering,
Until the tremors fall asleep
And leave my heart light
As if no longer
can any shadows creep
To obfuscate my mind

One day I'll let my worries
Rest beneath my feet
Till it sprouts newborn hopes
And wishes to be fulfilled
This was written four years ago, but still so relevant in my life.
Luscinia Axiom Dec 2024
I return to your vapid embrace
To achieve my one desired erase
A vacancy I long to seek
You take away all things bleak

I sleep in your consolation
Numbed, I turn from liberation
My existence alone succumbs
A boundless void my soul becomes

Reject, abandon, and efface
Incapacitate the disgraced
The flawed spirit of one so weak
Nothingness, hereafter, it bespeaks
Luscinia Axiom Dec 2024
I gaze upon your visage with unfamiliarity
Separately, every feature recalled in clarity
Yet the mind can no longer mend it whole
Puzzle pieces amidst a peerless black hole

I question the authenticity of your existence:
"Are you a person left without consistence?"

While each part of you reacts in resistance:
"I reject that the spirit is without subsistence."

...Your eyes burrow with a darkening gaze
And my own perceives with a lingering haze
The exterior exhibits an obscure inner verity
While the immutable abides to every polarity
Luscinia Axiom Dec 2024
a thousand boring gazes akin
to bugs crawling under the skin
they seek out all voids within
each crevice a home to live in

the persistent turbulence proceeds
each apprehension plants its seeds
lay the eggs, the progeny succeeds
as maggots, upon weakness feeds

and with their growing infestation
brings a constant buzzing sensation
decaying flesh―a crumpled carnation
from inevitable discorporate predation

— The End —
