"contractile" poems
i cannot rest towards sleep, not insomnia nature, but this mind's consistency to intensively be critical of cared units to measure. continuing as each tactile, contractile, dactyl pressing against this chest contesting examination against my inclination to worry a hurried yet impede succession to assess these abscesses within weaving teaming thoughts defensive to the x and o drawn so that i may anticipate tomorrow's entailed beauty wait, a change in tone a drop in breath rest, retired, and displaced movement of consciousness no longer anxious gravity has provided a pillowed valley to allow this face to rest this monocle towards the dimly lit neon green pass the hour 4 am I divulging my emotions to conceived mirror dramatic animated images alas spirits lifted time remains cycling pedaling from unneeded wakes of waves so I may dream

hours at night
i am a human being and although i may look as solid as a rock on the outside, doesn't mean i am not as soft and plushy as a cotton ball on the inside. what is a heart? it is a hollow, pumplike ***** of blood circulation, composed mainly of rhythmically contractile smooth muscle, located in the chest between the lungs. i do not understand how a heart can make you feel emotion for that is not how i thought that worked. to my knowledge, it is just the way us humans are. so what happens when someone says they have had their heart broken? well one can only assume that they are going to die or they are, already dying. if you complain about your appearance, yes at first you will get drowned in compliments by people you love, but as time goes on, everybody will see that there is no way to help you. if you are searching for a love that is so far fetched, you need to learn to love yourself first, before you can love anybody else. and if you think that you are broken or hurt and in pain, then only you are the one who has broken yourself. only you can fix the way you are, so tell yourself you are a whole person, and that these bad things will not affect who you are.

the heart
Just a glance of you was enough Rapid serotonin surge giving me great triumph. Did my heart just skipped a beat Giving me a premature contractile treat. Adrenaline galloped into my blood Spawning multiple contractions that made me look ahead. The feeling was so deep, that my cerebrum failed to process lashings of sensory, motor and cognitive chores. Have waited quite long to say “ I love you”, But I never knew that my wernicke’s area isn’t giving a cue. Don’t know how to deal with this, A shot of ****** may sometimes give me a sigh of bliss Duplexing happily into morphine, embracing the opioid receptors It makes a vow to present me a warm flush of euphoria. Oh my, was I turning blue? A tint of cyanosis giving him a clue. Dumbstruck seeing him walking towards me, I just blabbered ‘are you nuts?’ Reminded by the anaphylactic shock bestowed by peanuts during my infancy. I have to deal simultaneously with hypoxemia and hypercapnia, My respiratory muscles giving me a sudden shut down. And I was choking so hard, Waking me suddenly from the beautiful dream I had. Dreams are just the perfect elixir of life, But in reality, just like opening the Pandora’s box.
