"undestined" poems
If insomnia were a bicycle, I’d ride it
As I watch my yawn open eye
Wide awake I’d smell the roses
trace their spikes and wear their lipstick
And pardon me if dreamers can’t smell it
A fever akin to a violin’s soundest
Cutting right through 4AM
with a blade of flicker and undestined dim
I’d ride past the bus stop I walk to everyday
Hang my black coat and never claim it again
Ride past the point where I’d make it to work on time
But my boss to never see my face again
And if the hour hand were any slower
I swear…
I’d finally meet you
And when I do finally see you
our glass cages will then shatter
Out of the wreckage, a new kind of disaster
A happy one
but I’d have to warn you
I don’t have time for greeting cards
There are no lungs in paper
Life is
a box of limbs
And that,
I would open
And you bet!
That, I’d claim
If insomnia were a bicycle, I’d ride it
Straight into the sunset, I’d watch the sunrise

DEAR PENPAL PEOPLE, some dreams can keep you thinking for a billion years:--)
the pure turquoise shivers diamonds down my spine
torture to the power I stand naked in line
endgame towards that brown
cluster mind surrounds that shrieking sound
to her to him undeniably I **** that escape for no more
a huge leftover on my soured piano box in a vein core
a question I ponder concerning my slate
am I even ready to lead the way of knows on this plate???
or even a remember of that cursed undestined for them for us to be
a far away excluded fate

If insomnia were a bicycle, I’d ride it
As I watch my yawn open eye
Wide awake I’d smell the roses
trace their spikes and wear their lipstick
And excuse me if the dreamers can’t smell it
A fever akin to a violin’s soundest
Cutting right through 4AM
with a blade of flicker
With an undestined dim...
I’d ride past the bus stop I walk to everyday
Hang my black coat and never claim it again
I’d ride to the point where I’d make it to work on time
But my boss to never see my face again
And if the hour hand were any slower
I swear…
I’d finally meet you
And when I do finally come to see you
our glass cages will then shatter
Out of the wreckage, a new kind of disaster
A happy one
but I’d have to warn you
I don’t have time for greeting cards
Or flat moons beaming dial tones
Because I am the type of girl
to eat my fruit with my eyes closed
And in this perpetual childhood
I am my own mother in a rocking chair
Back and forth
Am I almost there
If insomnia were a bicycle, I’d ride it
Straight into the sunset, I’d watch the sunrise

We all have fought this far
To live another day in this realm of despair,
To have another breath in a land of make believe,
Just so we can collapse at the dawn of war
What is the point of joy
Just knowing it will last for ticks,
Taking it for granted as your eyes shred tears
As you realize it's all granted as a toy to play
As you fight, you stand your side
You realize the colors fade away
As your feet fall down you stay and sway
The sorrow coming from the trivial made
We collect and hide in decoys,
The pain and sorrow goes away,
But scars and memories do stay
In our minds and hearts of sticks
Then you wake up and stand up everyday,
Go repeat the day after yesterday,
What is the point of a yesterday
When there's nothing new today
We fight a trivial battle with our dire epoch
We run we sweat we fall to see another sunshine
We laugh we cry we frown to call ourselves a human
Just so we die.

trace your faded prints upon the dirt
around them, mud congeals to form my hurt
failing falling stars confuse my path
I shuffle feet for miles but stay inert
all false the trails refusing to subvert
antipathetic strands to stir my wrath
The trees all flay themselves to spill the secrets
thou swore undying oath to never keepest
lest all worlds align to hide the truth
Pausing, taking breaths beneath the deepest
floors of pits that tenderly would keep us
undestined, lost and wild to know our youth
And seek you out I must, I must, I will,
at universe's end, a galaxy
where we would rest, reborn; become, to be
where every breath relaxes into still
Ever will you walk alone, until
you witness me in my entirety
Come, my unforgotten one, you see
arrival less one is a bitter pill

This emotion of love
my emotion that loves
you
in a form more pure
than the drops of rain
or the clouds they come from
Will these I wonder
live as they do
in thin air
or mid space
meaningful yet still
not physical
Or will they I wonder
die inside the cages of my chest
in the core of my heart
never getting a touch
of their destiny
The destiny that is placed
in your heart

You were written
in my destiny
Only as the sky
Untouchable
I can admire you
Your presence
Only never be with
Untouchable
When you are a star
I am not the dark
In my world to be seen
Untouchable
To fly would be
Feel your presence
Only never be
With you present
Untouchable
If you are the sun
I am only the ray
There by your eminence
Untouchable
You were written
in my destiny
Known by my heart
But my eyes not so
Untouchable

You say you want to run away
From your world and all its dismay
I told you, don't worry about a thing
Follow me and let yourself unwind
Stare into my eyes, dive deep into my mind
Swim through the seas of my thoughts and deepest desires
My world is yours, just let me make your dreams come true
For there isn't anything I wouldn't let you do
All through and through, I was never enough for you
Perhaps you were just dastard, too scared to try something dignified
For to come find it's all a lie, and I willing to forgive
An utter butcher, you wouldn't even let it live
I wondered if it was my ignorance that led to the end
But no....it seems it just wasn't meant to be
But why is there something inside me that just won't let it be

After all, we weren't meant to be
We are two innocent victims
of the thought we were
So blinded by the troubled flame
that we didn't know what would turn into ashes
So awed by the sea
without realizing the waves could toss us
onto the shore, barefooted
After all, we weren't for each other
We are two fools calmed by the thought
that love is enough

This was an illegal ****
between you and me.
I will abdicate―
my headstone.
The black eyes keep on staring
at the orange wings.
Butterflies presage
the quake's qualms.
Very unsettled, I was,
against the odds. I was trying
to figure out my―
new passage.
Slaughtered with a sickle,
a faith lies―
bleeding, I bring out the
cannabis for peace.
