"shinigami" poems
I have seen colorful rainbows And breath-taking sunsets But I can't get enough of both I can't get enough of nature I would like to witness Fireflies flying through the darkness With their lights dancing around like in parties Seeing it would really be great! I'd love a show Of falling white snow Its cold touch on my skin All I can do is to imagine! But my biggest dream is To see an Aurora Borealis I'll permit even death After I see this beauty I grew up in a tropical city, you see So nature became a mystery to me They're like fairies asking for a chase An exotic flavor I'd love to taste But if the Shinigami comes to me first Before I can check these off my wishlist And if I can't bargain anymore I'll calmly come with him and say, *"Sure.." "I have already enjoyed Aurora Borealis In my lover's eyes long before And I had several fireflies in my stomach, Plus I have fallen for someone like a snow."* So no regrets I'll check you all out in my next life I'll leave to the living the rest To take care of these wonders for the reincarnated

A City Kid's Wishlist
Her shallow waters, I dove in head first trynna be someone I shouldn't sin suicide if she wanted I would jump again; terrorist all she needed was a turban with a Taliban as a wristband chants written on her body they were lyrics then tattooed, and I was thinking more like angel wings instead she brought a dress from the devil on the ****** sands tainted, glasses even tinted, everything Instragram everything vintage, everything is everything to her im just a witness; a blast from the past, a mistress of a mistress Killed it. matter fact **** me this not what I wanted and I not who I should be; you say the sky's the limit but my limit is a frisbee my sky is a ceiling of a feeling of what could be I don't think I want you any more! MTA stand clear closing doors gasoline burning bridges to the floor abandon ship ***** you don't wanna fall alone but it seems im stuck in Davie Jones and swimming in her waters is the only way to roam, grown daughter of the music angel so; burn Sean is the only way to go; swerve I had get up outta there but no one elses water taste like Everclear and no one elses water I could jump in bare matter fact there was never water there i could jump in raw, the rain coat was never there Hold up, but what was I thinking I knew her whole song she never had to sing it I knew that it was wrong, I couldn't stop reneging ***** after ***** after ***** cut after cut with a blade clubs I would cut cause of shame I knew her whole hand so who is up for blame, Or is this just a phase but maybe I was wrong, to think theres something better and maybe Im alone in thinking that there was palm trees and maybe nicer weather after I was giving up but I cant forget her. so I jumped in again, head first she was wet all clear, slick roads traveling full speed on her **** curves words slurred vision about to go I'm bout to give it all up to this girl my mans like I don't really think you know cause once you go in raw you already sold your soul and once you eat her fruit she already took your clothes.

There's a thing in the reflection Two beady eyes shoved deep into black sockets, stabbing through my temple There's a hunch in their back, but not by choice A collar wraps tightly around the throat, creating deep holes for inconsolable truths to slip out I woke to him hanging from the ceiling; ever constant blank expression plastered The wire is wrapped around my body We have never spoken a word to one another. forever inseparable A gentle kiss on the forehead, and suddenly the floor seems much less cold

Shinigami
Pages turning in the breeze, Names and dates written with ease, Creatures not worthy of breath, Each has chosen their own death, Faces clear against the names, Marking them for Satan's flames, Spirits watch this work with greed, Each line fills their ancient need, Corrupted souls will come and go, Mortals seldom see or know, Angels walk the land as men, Each one armed with sword and pen.

Shinigami
The black waters lap gently At the shore of an obsidian beach. I stand with my feet Just submerged under the water, My nails shining with kuro polish. A shinigami waits beside me, Its hands clasped behind its back And its gaze fixed unblinkingly At the distant, curved horizon. Friends, enemies—I do not know yet: All I know so far Is that we’ve been standing here, together, For quite some time, And that every so often, One of us will reach out And clasp the other’s hand.

Shinigami
Your shadow has fallen over this place like the plague. The chandeliers cower at your advent, collapsing atop this innocent crowd; yet the violins still play. Your presence ensues consternation. Who's next? Who's time is it? It is I from which your invitation has been sent. I am elated you could make it. My mask is you, with rose patterns aligned, a gown to match, with a bone breaking corset. From my painted lips, Will you save me this dance? Face to face, chest to chest, force each breath from my lungs. Twirling now to my sounds, I follow your lead. Dip me back into your arms, my sweet, finally reaping me with a kiss. You are my only love.

Mr. Shinigami,
Feather pen, traditional; it is a lovely piece. Jar of ink, Spilled a drop in a cracked floorboard. It spreads fast, covers the room. Isolated, Blackened and insane. Thirty four minutes pass, not a sound. Mind is failing: who am I? Forget your own name, voices are whispering. Did you know lovers can find each others lips in the complete dark? Minds reach, feel me. No. This is not dark. This is endless, too much and too little to look for. Skill does not matter here. I fell down the rabbit hole, but my name is not Alice. My name Is Death. I am a shinigami, you see. And my purpose is to cause pain and worry. People cry for me. This dark room is where my film developes. Picture the void that souls fall into, tortures children stabbing, cutting out their own hearts. Write about it, children. Carve it into your skin and I will take you away. I am her for you in your darkest hour. And I am always watching. Never spill your blood red ink again.

Long Live the Quill
Everything is made from everything else. The deep oceans of the iris. To the integration of speech. It all circles around the finite life people lead. Regardless of what the self made kings and gods through the ages proclaimed. Their ashes litter the same earth as the peasants that washed their ignorant feet. There was no shinigami awaiting to return them to their kingdom. All that stood before them as the last breathe was drawn were those same peasants. Waiting for the last rites to be given so the fresh corpse could be taken to rot in a tomb. Some shallow grave that was neither glorious nor spectacular. The only thing it accomplished was cementing the cold fact that this life is it. No bells or horns to guide the spirit. No animal to hint at something greater. Just a box. With a pillow to ensure maximum comfort. So when the decomposition sets in. At least the box was pretty. Pointless. From one ignorant being to the rest. Mayday. Clear the predicted crash site. And wait. There will be limbs to collect. Maybe for once. All the pieces will be salvaged. Not likely though.

LET ME......
Man predicts Earthquakes, Cyclones, Hurricanes, Tsunamis But in trying to stop them He becomes the shinigami. Knowledge is fine Controlling is divine But Nature is still BEYOND man’s confines!
