What else could we do
except watch the world around us?
How could we voice thoughts we do not know?
And Sometimes we just can't cope,
Yet we can't bring ourselves to admission.
So we fixate on what can never be real,
Because it stops and seals us from realisation.
We derealised from the world we're supposed to know,
Instead we escape to where we can never go.
Sebastian Hale Mar 2018
When perception is reality
Your skin is your commodity.
Fighting in a game of love
That's lost all of its humanity.

Actions in derealised imaginings,
Senseless wanderings over
a frozen crest that once held you're heart.
You mined it, destroyed its core.
Smouldering smoke a deep chested,
                      ~cough~

You're eyes are dark now,
decaying in a wasteland distress.
Deserted death.
Life force drained consuming all,
But one flower, soul of love,
Let go, not betraying its beauty.













Far away he fled.
Her piercing coral eyes of flame
Evaporate my senses.
You face will stay askew.
Disjointed unharmonious debilitating dances stay, mocking my innocent play.




Free in space

My mind is here.




Away from you it's far more clear.
This is the poem I first submitted and thought appropriate to put up as my first poem also. I recently went through a breakup and have never been hurt so intensely despite having been both in love and broken up with before. This time I had to leave.
