a guy sits here
hair a twist
no ordinary man
but a case
whatever prefix fits

he knows no limitations
seeks no thrill but fear
holds no memory dear
brains grasp simply too frail
such a broken outside
and gargoyles pier
however
he tranquilizes them
anytime someone comes near
yet the people abstain still
no shame, no cheer

they simply cannot see what purity
he has in his crypt
intimidated
severe

so let us move forward and glaze over the thick
move towards the misery which anguishes him

nonsense is sensical, whimsy at best
rational is of logic and dreary
detest

******* and thumbing
he frantically does his best
pulls his hair out
pulls his hair out
closed fist
punches chest

"where is she
where is her
name i cannot confess
for it escapes me...
not because
but rather-"

due to his distress

he stopped and sighed
violence
cried
broke down
then bled
red from his eyes

i want her
the sad one
shy

hurt inside

abused, accursed
diseased but undisguised

she'll love me

she will
there's nothing there to hide
she'll make me forget myself
sing or dance or
romanticize

"i want her...
a baby's friend
the neighbor's newborn daughter
the baby friend that came over
as an infant, i saw her
i kept the same heart
but its been through a lot
and now its done with slaughter

i kept the same heart
its growing apart
i need the neighbor's daughter"

it seems as though convinced
he truly had the heart of a newborn
ambivalent
knowing no complexity
purely hurt or comfort
either way's a shoulder
diamond or dirt
seemed to be bipolar

so he seeks the same
not the opposite
that would be a shame

because no one else can relate
to someone who feels the world
has turned its back on fate

he seeks out this girl
overlooking
all the beasts in his way

with evil colors they mask their face
appear to appeal, they may

but he knows better
their defenses fragile
they attract a plethora

to which they expose
like a sinister rose
the black rock in frame

the black rock so hard
shapely carved
to which its "blacksmith"
inscribes no name

a black heart
he sighs
which holds no light

might as well not exist

The wind tranquilizes me
With the shining smile of yours
"I just can't crack your code"
Ayeshah Jun 2014
I can't do this
continuing
this
charade
as if
we'll go further

than we've been.
I don't have it in me

to play
these heart wrecking
games

Say what you want & say what you must

but
when it comes time

You'll
Thank me.


You'll

see*

I did you a favor
walking out
as
I've done


I've given you

freedom

instead of
moments spent


*cursing
the days you've ever
met me


or

complaining in anguish

for

the rest of your life


You'll thank me
I'm sure
of it


I'm just not

right for you


I'll ruin the fabrics & fibers
in which you so live by


I'll

demolish

the peace that

tranquilizes

your inner mind
&
thoughts;

You'll have nightmare

I swear

&

they'll be all of me

I can't do this

Don't put faith or trust in me

Some day

I promise

without me

You shall be happy

without

my miserable
company


You don't need

someone

* like
me

I'm mean & nasty

down right raunchy

I'm overly
argumentative & so very overbearing

I don't like washing dishes & dislike listening

I wont compromise or consider your feeling

not to heart.


I'll **** up yo world &  rip it all apart.


I can't do this

none of it is going to work

I have no faith & no trust

I can't help you

*because


I don't wish to

I don't like

feeling these weird things
like
when you


look at me
or touch me just right


I feel as if my flesh's on fire

my inside do flips

my mouth waters up
&
my heart beats faster


I get goosebumps & all tongued tied

I feel things that

SCARE

the hell outta me

I have no empathy
least I doubt I do


I've been told
what it is
but
doubt I can feel it


I think & feel

completely
different than you


Enclosed in this darkness

comforts me

You'll never understand

This bleak soothing

presents of loneliness

it's for me

The emptiness

is far better

than

anything good
you'd possible bring


These shattered

glass-like pieces

of my broken heart
helps me


Never to forget

I'm

no good

*
NOT


for you

&

One day

Someday
real soon


You'll Thank Me

My denim leg is perpendicular to my knee,
I continue a light shaking of my foot.
Its constant rhythm seems to match
me internally.
The couch is dull and used,
with a history of insanity and progress.
It never has intimidated me.
I now sink hard into the cushion’s depths.
His opposing presence tranquilizes
the tangents and tragedies.
My mouth releases words
that first entered the gates of my conscious
with astonishing ease.
I am a balance,
it’s all about the balance.
Adam Childs Mar 2014
Please please your highness
My gracious Queen
Please seek the righteous path
For your knight's strength
Can be no greater
Than the height of your ideal
And his bonds of allegiances, no stronger
than your bonds with God
For it is only the Queen
Who drinks from the cup of justice
That softens to the will of God
Which can feed the Lions
Buried deep in her knight's heart

Cherished, are the moments
A knight shares with his horse
As I rest in the silence
Of this blemishless heart
A humble steed it be
That carries a kingdom on his back
Twisted am I, for I ask so much
As to serve a master
Is to betray a friend
For sorrow fills my heart
As your master, how can this be
When you teach me loyalty
dignity and bravery
I vow now to never leave your side
And all blessings bestowed to me pass onto you

To my gracious Queen
May I honour all of you
For only I know the gentleness
Of my vengeful great queen
As my faith rests in her
And hers in mine
Such faith has no grave
But binds us as one
For you are the rainbow after every war
Who brings new promise to my weeping heart
that tranquilizes the regrets
Of my blood soaked hands
And lifts my stained soul
From the stench found in battle

For you my Queen I owe all to you
Into the arms of the Lord I do now fall
for never will be such service forgot
But lie in the souls for evermore
I used spend time with a lady which always had a regal feel around her or at least I felt she did and I also experienced  a strange feeling of allegiance  towards her which gave me feeling that I had served her before , if you believe in past lives? .
Something about your smile captivates me like a single star on a dark night,
when the sky is cloudless and all you can see is it
shining.

Something about your eyes take my breath away,
so whenever we speak together and you gaze into mine
as the politeness you are so accustomed to requires of you,
I stop to think.

I always think, but there's something in those eyes that make my mind
turn into a compilation of mush and butterflies,
when my face begins to turn bright pink and people blame it on the temperature
when really everybody knows it's because of you.

Something about your voice tranquilizes me,
the minute a word slips off your tongue it causes me
to just focus on your soft tone, a voice that seems it could never be mad.

Something about you completes me,
and I'm not quite sure what it is yet, but I want to find out
if I can complete you, too.

One chance, one moment to be together with your smile,
your voice,
your eyes,
you,
and surely, I'll have the world at my fingertips.
my hands turn into jello as i type and think about you

She is waiting there by herself. A woman, in a light colorful dress, that contrasts her gentle shoulders and sensible neck. It's raining. You see how the rain drops falling down from the sky are touching her and burst with exhiliration. They cover all her body, pure and shining like a heaven itself. She is standing there alone in the crowd.
Cars, buses are passing by, but she is waiting for something or... somebody. A deep uncertain regret starts permeating your mind, something that you are not, yet, able to understand yourslef but what causes pain. May be that's the sorrow of realizing
that she doesn't know you or... the thought that you would never be able to kiss her shoulder, and you don't want more. Even kissing her, you would have done it so gently and carefully, so that you would not have destroyed the harmony of her endless beauty... beauty of the lake, reflecting the sky and rising sun, that leaves you dazzled if you look on it. That kind of beauty you would not dare to touch, but just let it shine through you. A beauty that tells you the reason of life, and tranquilizes your soul. You wish your life was as ideal as the traits of her face, eyes, lips... You wish you were a wind that touches her so elegantly, without a word or any wrong movement, leaving itself in every and each cell of her body, disappearing in her sweet scent... You wish... And when you open your eyes you see her sitting in somebody's car... and the car is going away... you're sitting alone waiting for the bus...

My heart is a baroque style garden,
You are my lovely gardener,
Therein you have created a beautiful effect of mind and soul,
Which tranquilizes and arouses my senses like a drug,
And awakens my unconscious  self to new heights.

The town of the grateful yet,
soon to be dead,
receive one last glance of the universe.
The radiant truth stills voices
and tranquilizes breath.
Eleven fireballs illuminate the moondust sky.

The grim sapphire hills wicket the town.
Is this the way to heaven?
This is the way to the stars.
The black tree's hair is a moussed flame,
a pin-point on the absent map.
An imaginary itinerary to starry night.

The orange crescent moon sings
lullabies to a silent town,
trapped in Bardo.
As the wailing spirit of death
slurps the brilliance from the stars.

Eleven stars, eleven souls.
Soothed gratefully to death
on a starry night.
Anais Vionet Dec 2021
simply awake
No music lulls
No quiet snoozes
No counting naps
No stretching tires
My clock taunts me
No comfort lullabies
No breathing relaxes
Pajamas strangle me
No coolness soothes
No meditation stupors
No visualization sleeps
No position tranquilizes
No supplements sedate
No aromatherapy calms
or finger painting slumbers
I am insomnia’s vigilant sentry.
Where, oh where's the sandman?
theabstrusepoet Jul 2017
The noise of the chaotic world
Tranquilizes my ever cranking mind
Drowning in the screams of the city night
Like a lullaby playing over and over again
Please sweet chaos
Carry me to sleep tonight

i love her
i love her with all my heart
the feeling i get when im next to her is impeccable
she feeds my soul
she enriches me
she fuels me
shes my muse
my energy
my vibe
my health

i love her
she treats me well
she knows how to take care of me
she knows how to take care of how i act
she feels for me
she feels for how i feel
she understands my emotions
she reciprocates my emotions with empathy
she calms me
soothes me
leisures me
tranquilizes me

i love her with all my heart
seeing her makes my heart jump
talking with her makes my heart beat faster
thinking of her makes my heart skip a beat
hugging her makes my heart want jump out of my chest and into her arms
shes my joy
my happiness
my calmness
my fire
my soul
my passion
my desire
my freedom
my liberty
my safe haven
my elysian field
she completes me

i love her being
flabbergasted by her angelic face
her beautiful smooth face
her big round eyes
her small beautiful nose
her smooth chiseled cheeks
her round edgy luscious hypnotizing lips
her soft aromatic polished hair
her radiating alluring charming smile
her pleasureful infectious blissful laugh
her curvy dainty mezmerising body

i love herself
enticed by her intricate brain
seduced by her sagacious thinking
engulfed by her cogent notions

The leftover of wonders in my heart
remain silent for long
somewhat tranquilizes the ignorance
of pain, of death and of betrayals
but one day it'd turned out to be
something really indifferent;
a supernova of little drops of water
under the power of subliminal soul
explosion of glittery violet's and blue's
bringing you into the 5th dimension
of drastically beautiful disaster.
the leftover of wonders in my heart
remained silent for too long

Your presence
Tranquilizes me
Your absence
Agitates me
