breathe.

Missing image
Blazed attraction, trapped.
Lullabies enchanting butterflies.
It never really mattered,
because we never ran after each other.

Ponderous, I see you stare,
dazzling memoirs of star-wrecked eyes
luminously, enciphered.
[moments later, the crystal, shattered clear.]

Momentarily, contagious contractions revealed,
but as always, feet were glued, hands retreated
and lips were sealed shut
with semiprecious jeweled smiles.

[Hanging broken on the corners of despair.]

Sighs, I hear tender whispers clinging on hope's salvation,
no more space for ridiculous redemption;
I dare not to breathe, I dare not to speak.
You take everything away from me...
                              [with just one warm glaring stare]

Convulsive epitome of uncomfortable diplomacy,
samples of dreaded anger seeping through congested pores.
I dare not take a step, I dare not sneak,
observing grinding muscles intertwine, vicariously seeing.

[continuously dreaming of fervent swathes.]


I sometimes forget to walk and speak,
to smell, to sneeze;
numbly I enfold heavy armors of defensive couture,
while relentless interventions less not to remind me, just how to breathe....

[when you're just one inch away... from me]

    The words are so beautiful and well put together; the language seems so ageless and soft. Such a beautiful story in a poem form and great emotions within it. Can't help but love poems like this. ^_^

      awww thanks daddy i am glad you are proud of me I am also porud of you for being more of a father to me than my real one love you!

  • This is very well done. I can see all the hesitation that is present in a new romance. My favorite stanza was:

    Momentarily, contagious contractions revealed,
    but as always, feet were glued, hands retreated
    and lips were sealed shut
    with semiprecious jeweled smiles.

    I hope that everything works out for the best.

    Great job.

    Mike
