"dimise" poems
I love the blues
the melancholy
never fails to capture my
despondent state of mind
Not something relished
but has become an obsession
those low chords strumming
harmoniously
A splash of liquor could
amplify
The pity party
The speakers high
Even if I could disguise
I do not dare hide dimise
because I dont have a fashion sense
and I cant stand negligence

My own advice must be lacking in something.
Will I in turn become defeated by my own dimise?
What doesn't break you makes you stronger.
Well maybe Im tired of being broken.
Hiding inside my head for now, let me know when you've found "an easy way out"

True translucent sphares ascending down upon me
Amongst this chaotic mess
The beauty slanted & warping in time
Cascade your light on those who need it
For I am too far to find
At home in the darkness with all it's little creatures
Please
Don't leave me to my own dimise
I'm not lost
No need for pitty
Simply
Knowing
So don't pull back my shades to where I feel most at home

I envy them
For they are free
But that unfortunately isn't me
They soar in the sky
While I'm stuck down here in my dimise
I hear them sing
"If you can't fly then run",once said Martin Luther king jr
So I run and never look back

In desolate places, I leave all my faces.
The masks and disguises, construction of lies.
The spotlight of fear, my delight and dimise.
As curtains close, applause fades,
alone with the shadows of self that pervades.
Ghosts of the past, that once were true.
Withered and lost, in my daily debut.
To please and to pleasure, a pointless measure.
Unable to escape, I'm asleep but awake.
I wriggle and writh in my own divide,
tearing apart from depths deep inside.
Empty halls and vacant seats,
angels and demons fatefully meet.
Crimson flows as roses fall,
the closing act as curtains call.
My death is rebirth, the dove and the crow,
a final bow at the end of my show.
