Love
is excitement and the lack thereof

Sensuality
developing across
a bed of thoughts

Effervescent
Droning

Bending to your will and
guiding it

Alluding you entirely

Compatible in all ways but one,
or one way but none

Love is whatever you make it to be
defined only by the realization of it's existence

lost
the urge to reach out,
to gaze into your eyes

overcoming barriers, only you and i fought.
just to be in one another's soothing embrace,

the emerald green capturing me,
forevermore.

stay by my side, as i stand by yours,
in love, once more.
yikes its been a while so this is not good
glorious setting sun
the longest list of comments
over my poem.

what do you do
when neither life
nor death sound delicious?

i’ll swallow the void
and hope it eats me
from the inside out
Maybe love is a warm cup of tea,
and a bowl of mie rebus
with half cooked egg,
that he made when you're
pouring rain

But when it gets cold, bitter
and lost its flavor bliss
you simply left because it's
unpalatable and you're
full of yourselfㅡ

Letting fresh air in
The gaze of two pale emeralds
Searching for the sun
Written while opening my window and catching the gaze of my neighbors cat before she stretched out and sun bathed.
Creases and lines guide our malleable vessel,
the mind.

Doubts, fears, and anxieties breakdown even the strongest of vessels to the core,
can it take much more?

Drowning in emotion, the exterior begins to erode apart, board by board.
How much more damage can such a small vessel endure?

Lust and greed lead the moaning vessel through the wrong currents and paths,
seemingly like a sociopath on a warpath.

We can only call on one savior in such detrimental times.

The mind.

Love, empathy, kindness, care, happiness, and positivity is the quickest escape, it has no name as it's inside every brain.
Our existence.

The mind.
