I don’t want to be “figured out.” 🧩✨…

I’m not a puzzle you piece together and then stuff into a box. Boxes… Four walls… Walls go up… And suddenly, I find myself trapped in my own making. A making I believed in because you believed. A concept. I’m not a concept. Depth breaches those walls—walls that were never really walls at... (edited) read more

Is this poetic? That I bleed and nothing soothes. Do I write this pain down, dripping fresh drops, and call it art? Breaths quiver; one is always the other's executioner. Thankful for the wounds, searing the flesh of a beauty that once was. Let these veins dry, for I'll dip my pen in the ink of... (edited) read more

I wrote this for someone the other day, but she never seemed that interested in it...

In the quiet hush of twilight’s gleam, Where shadows dance, like stars unseen, I find your eyes—like Orpheus’ song, A melody where heartbeats belong. Your smile, a gift from Hypnos' dream, A soft cascade, like Lethe’s stream, Washing away the weary past, A promise of love that forever will... read more

Words trapped inside, a silent scream Unspoken emotions, a heart's extreme A forced smile hides, the turmoil and strife A concealed agony, that cuts like a knife.

The drowning

The drowning Every emotion i feel The good, the bad Feels so surreal In that It envelops my entire being Like it demands to be felt It drowns me in the feelings Till my conciousness melts Sorrow, joy, pain Love, hate, loneliness They never gently rain Onto me like a cosiness Its always thunder... read more

Fracture

Tears in my eyes as I try to sleep. Remnants of hope that I try to keep. Dreams are just nightmares in the day. When I wake up to find they've gone away. Do you think the same thoughts that I do? Thinking, dreaming of us two? Is it delusion keeping me awake? Or am I delusional for their sake? Am I... read more

The Wizard's Diet

The wizard's fat belly It grumbled and cried "I fed you already." Foul caster-- he lied! He thought he could trick With a flip of his hat But if he could deceive it He wouldn't be fat! So he crawled and he scrawled Too unwilling to eat "If I give up this time, It would mean my defeat!" But he... read more

A storm rages within, fury untamed Anger boils, yet a smile's forced frame Am i captive of calm, or a coward's guise? A masked emotion, that hides the inner cries.

Anchor

Do tears fall up onto your face? Or are they always mine in the first place? In a dream I see you over me eyes locked onto mine as we come together in the only way we know how. Both trying to live in life as it is now. But am I the only one scared of what's to come? Hard to dream other outcomes... read more

Despairing nourishment

From bleeding hearts, does the weeping willows thrive, and from scorned souls does its cries rise. Unto empty voids does the loving words of a poet empty In, and from lessons learned again, do they begin. Seen by blinded eyes does the acts of love show, reaping all the wickedness they never knew... read more

Happy accident

To have, someone by your side that speaks your language To not, have to spend your lifetime translating yourself What more should one desire When nothing much needs to be said You are understood as you utter a word, even silences are being read

Where Tales Began

Just some thoughts

I walk through years of empty halls, where silence weeps and shadows call. The walls I built, my fortress, my tomb, a cage of longing, a life of gloom. I watch their laughter, distant, sweet. A melody my heart can't meet. Their hands entwine, their voices blend, while mine grasp at air that will... read more

The World Cries Too…💧

It’s pouring out. One of those days where you hear everything. The wind gusts, and the continuous tapping of droplets lulls you into a trance.

In times of great strife, great uncertainty, it will feel like the universe has its eyes on you, teeth bared and claws out.

Blue fox of peace and acceptance, eyes shut, no tears, no fight. A flame wakes up, burns within causing her pain day and night. She swallows hard her tears, caused by griefs ache and fear, hoping claiming calm will keep them at bay, but the burning, the burning comes out to play. Sometimes it... read more
