-
Because he’d always rather be looking at black and white pages.
-
I’ve already substituted the Color of your eyes for air.
-
Because the velvet of your lips is all I need,
To hang my neck on a fragile string.
-
Reaching out to the clouds, my wings,
Made of bottle caps and discarded strings.
-
Fingertips touch yet,
The space inbetween stretches for miles.
-
I am not content in you falsifications,
Not content in your war declarations or small emancipations.
-
-
Hoping you might just by chance,
Lose you hideous voice.
-
But breaks your heart and forces,
Tears instead of laughter.
-
You who has nailed this coffin shut,
Sealing the fate of my fluttering heart.
-
You've shown me the side of you,
That's shadowed from the rest of the world.
-
Eventually engulfed, I cannot think.
Eventually upsidedown, it's hard to breathe.
-
Leaning against metallic walls,
Elevator moving up while casting my emotions behind.
-
I need to remember the times that were shared,
Before you leave me to dead leaves and thoughts rare.
-
Cage my heart with written words and,
Open my head for all the world to see.
-
Choked by thorns and blinded by roses,
You told me to cry but I'm laughing instead.
-
I've wished too hard for someone...
Whom I with my darkest memories could truly trust.
-
Memories a broken river as they seep into mind,
Seething at what my thoughts untwine.
-
Twist and shred lungs with broken keys,
Only with her do I remember to breathe.
-
Not a poem,
Not a poem in the least.
-
So Alice will trip and break upon the ground,
A million shattered shards that made no sound.
-
Underneath our fragmentary cover,
We shrug off the world and leave it to find what it finds.
-
With glowing eyes that softly press,
Into your heart to leak to your wrists.
-
You had to laugh, now, didn't you?
I guess you broke my final leather strap.
-
Nothing should have caused the depression they gave me,
But behind black eyes there is no pain that will not leave.
-
So many things broke in her mind,
Sorrow bloomed and lovely thoughts cried.
-
Dedicated to all those whom have felt the pain of invisibility.
-
I know well of your poison breath,
The addictive wave you inject.
-
You watch them seep the light from you,
And leave you black in a charcoal dream.
-
A silence for those whom could never speak…
Soon broken as more and more were lost.
-
She disappeared without a door again,
And left me on the floor.
-
Losing a taste for this labyrinthine case,
Half reaching for a world that should never have been there.
-
These eyes see the taint,
The toxic mist a vulture at finger tips.
-
But in the scarlet no one devours,
These fingers find the world.
-
Spread pale arms and twirl against the cold,
Slipping against the path less followed.
