Sacrificial semantics, cardiac romantics, bred into generational poetic descriptives
I am the result of ancestral language, yielding powerful Tenochca dynamics

Who scraped away the dust of the moon and bled tangerine into the sunrise
Blanketed by riveting time, my leaders soured through chaos and sculpted pantomime
An humble cry revealed craters in the sky and hailed reflections amongst the horizon

Who wielded away the iron of the sun and hemorrhaged into the darkness
A pulsating, heartless rhythm that distinguished an iron hand to honorable freedoms

Sacrificial semantics, cardiac romantics, bred into generational poetic descriptives
I am the result of ancestral language, yielding powerful Tenochca dynamics
No matter how complicated our pain,
grand our joy,
pure our love,
or deep our sorrow,
we can never truly find the words
to express just how we feel.
Metaphors,
descriptives,
or long-winded phrases,
no words we can form
will ever actuate
what it is we truly feel.
Whether we use scarce few
or many
to express our emotions,
our words are still but vague reference cards
in the library of soul.

I think I could talk about love forever
Could write about it forever
Continue to think of new combinations of descriptives to define it
And still be lacking the true essence of the feeling I get in my chest when you do something for me that makes me feel special and set apart
Or find a word to rhyme with the pangs in my heart,
Once love goes away
Because we all know that love never stays
In some kind of way it dies
Just like all of our destinies
But it's just so worth it in the moment when you bring out the best in me
And I just like to ignore the ones who dare to question me
Me and my love.
Cause how would they know?
They're just blind,
But in a different way than mine
Cause no one knows my episode of sublime-
Like you.
My heart literally smiles at the little quirks you do
Cause that's the only way I know you're being real and true
So caught up I'm not even worried about that 20/20 hindsight view.

He does this thing, you see
He uses large words with empty meanings
To show his empathy, or lack there of
It's his attempt at connecting

To most it's unnoticed
It stays below the scope of their awareness
But I've found where he places these
Horrible, horrifying, descriptives

Because I do the same, so I adore them
For him secrets do not remain secret to me
Because he is as I am, and I am as he
Aristophanes depicted him and me
