Siren's Sully
NTK Dec 2021
Silence, the ship's sails have halted
The sea whales have ceased
Singing their lamentations, as the beach shore sanguines a murky horizon

Red fades to black, as shimmers of wavering hope speckle a once pure....Once, pure hellscape carved by tainted talons
Blood drips from the heavens, tears mix into a toxic vile
The mirror's ink lighter upon my trace,as the siren's wails sound increasingly feint, feinter
Now whispers reverberating in the Guilded chambers of my rotting shame and guilt

HOPE-?
NTK Oct 2019
As I climb out of the lightless well I find myself in,
Using the hope placed so conveniently close, dangling.
Tearing,the light emanating from beneath waning,
the bones within my neck breaking,ti's from This noose I am hanging...

In my head a hail ensues;
It leaks through my eyes as rain...

Illusion is mine
NTK Jun 2019
In this cursory fueled phantasm;
I eternally dissipate into nothingness;
Each passing moment a specter of who I was;
A spiraling abyss of lost hope and doom;
Void of happiness;
Stripped of life;
Yet here I'am;
The only inhabitant;
Still reaching to the sky to catch the sun
With its fading light;

The Dance
NTK Jun 2019
Heavenly bodies above and beyond
Leaping and turning to a celestial song;
One that has played for eons with no rest
One that will play for billions of years;
Long after we're gone
The stellar show goes on;
In the loud supernova bombs
And the wild galactic storms;
In the motherly Nebula, of stars that form;
In the entrails and cold, of some that are gone;
The black bodies of Sir Singularity
The bright cores of burning Sun's;
Orchestrated by darling Gravity  
Ti'll the dance of the cosmos is done...

Dichotomy of Worlds
NTK Jun 2019
One below,one above//
One to the stars/
One deep sown/
Into the earth/
Up to the sky//
A state in birth/
Finality when you die//
Worlds between a chasm/
Mutually unbound/
One screams of passion/
The other where it dies.//
The dichotomy after death/
And what lies in you and I/
When you take your last breath/-
Or when emotions swirl around.
The difference between heaven and hell,depression and happiness,Life and Death. The ubiquitous divide in all positive and negative.The binary world where each one is hiding.

The cave of denial
NTK Jun 2019
I can hear your echo growing ever near
You sound closer every time;
Your voice distorted, I still clear
Memories of your sincere good-bye ;
The words you say more ever rain,
But your heartbeat I cant tell;
Your back Is turned my way;
Ti's then I realize I'm in hell..
When a relationship ends before you're ready, you often delude yourself. Creating a cave in front of you and the person you still love, so as to hear the echoes of their voice and to think that all they say is still meant for you...but as they get closer to the far wall their voice becomes clearer ,it is then that they are most distant and it dawns that their back is actually facing you.A pain hurting more than the sharpest stalactite stab.

Scenery full of gases so effervescent /
Volatile fumes i find ever so pleasant /
Only seen by those pursuing glorious academia;
Pursuit of it, is self Euthanasia ;
Oh field
Full of wonder and excitement!
In the branches of your tree
I find enlightenment ;
Sculpt for precision
A weapon so fierce and sharp ;
What bravery ? What skill ?
Dare ignite thy spark ?
Scenery full of gases so effervescent;
Pursuit for your fruit
I shall embark/

Ambiance of the Malevolent
NTK Jun 2019
Somniferous agents all about;
Luminous ambiance of the night;
Mind's mush, turns to cloud
Angels winged, morph to things of fright;

No matter how straight, tunnel visioned horse's path
One's exposed to nefarious things at large;
Nebulous hazed forgotten lanes;
Now gaunt and hushed, by all profane-

Prayer prayer teary drops;
Divine entity give me sword:
Evil evil Bleaken thoughts;
As dreams fade alas winter falls...

Tree of Life
NTK May 2019
With Branches surrounding me like tree vines-
And fruits sweeter than the ripest peach;
Your shady personality my pantry of retreat;
Unspoken pleasures evident from these lines-

You provide the very air I inhale;
Take away the bad air I exhale;
I'm tasked with nurturing the very soil you're in-
Wetting the shoots.roots of your green being-

You are my muse for life;
When your leafs wilt and fall to the soil
I retrieve them so they can't die;
And when you come to full bloom
I spring for joy;
Because in essence you are my tree of life...

Unspoken...
NTK May 2019
The eyes we lock embody my
feelings for you//

Fugacious intention
surrounds my every word//

By Cupids arrow i'm impaled for you
An enigmatic feeling which carves my very soul//

An insurmountable wedge seems to exist
One never leaving us to be//

Now we are at worlds end//

With the divine barrier still intact
And my rotting flesh still outstretched.

THE DEEP
NTK May 2019
Raging seas boil
And spill over the eye lined gaze;
As my lids shut
An ocean descends-
Leaving all soaked
In the despairs of yesterday;
The effulgence of the moonlit sky
Distorts;
Forming only whispery shades of light;
Unconquered by any dark-
Unblessed by any spark;
A puddle engulfs the very well i'm in
Sinking deeper and deeper;
With light but a speck of dust
And dying echoes siphoned same
With fugacious inhale..

Untitled
NTK May 2019
Shall i compare thee to a winter night ?
With lips red as the most blazoned winter flame/
And skin frozen as death's cold embrace/
Oh fairest maiden icicled to you is my waning sight/

In your presence my perspiration's courses lay in frost/
Mind ceases function and blood runs to heart most/
Dearest maiden my spine chitters underneath your snow white skin/
And your sunless eyes shining light to my shadowy gleam-

Woods of fire burning ever so dim/
Puddles forming on slippery floors/
Ashes crumble to forgotten dreams/
With your cold gaze frosting unto me no more/
The freezing chill of summer
Succumbs my world as before
Liquid poem
Up to the reader's imagination
