Every Day Poems

2023-06-12 04:06:05 What's better than an apocalypse that unhinges intense passion, abandon you marooned on a starstruck island? You can bend beneath a grandeur, sink at the grace of your villainess, pull strings with foxy lips. Raging crimson tempest whispers to me of my hunger. I press my eyes tight, cover my shoulder blade from the moon although I know I can't obscure who I am. At times my mind tells me it is going to be a good riddance, that she won't come back to haunt me, but who am I kidding? Whatever this is, it is going to stay eons and only the potential that it would take my spirit bare to erase her from my stars would give me some rest. Don't you know my skin craves daggers it can be impaled with?

What's better than disappearing in the summer of your birthday, the sadness ebbing away the sight of her wine dress at the exhibit, but I know it is not gone. I can feel her lurking around here somewhere, longing to immerse herself in me, engrain everything that she wants me to be. The bad girls in the theaters, stealing beauty and wit from innocent lasses at the bell of midnight scream at me to avenge them, to put down their names in history as the broken gone rouge but most of all stronger than the steel they pierced their purity with. Don't you know I have a mission, a pursuit of bloody mary nights? Open / Comment

2023-06-12 01:58:23 My love for you is like a field of golden wheat,
The sun making it shimmer and gleam,
As it bobs and then sways in the breeze.
Your love for me is a still pond of glassy water,
So still and so clear,
It reflects the stars in the night sky.

2023-06-11 21:44:21 There's one thing about memories
that you can never dust them off,

They just seep into your skin,
make a home out of your body,
create havoc in your mind,
engrave themself deeply,
soar themself when
you are alone,
will make you remember
what you once had,
what you once cherished,

They always stay by your side,
they never leave
even if you
leave this world.

2023-06-11 18:02:03 You know there was this one time, when you were screaming, flaming, feeding your words and tales to those who demanded them.

The time when your were bound to their desires and hunger, when your scars were theirs to savour.

That one time, when he came with his axe, breaking the chains together with your soul apart.

The one time you were hesitant to take his hand.

It was just that one time, an episode of the cycle. No matter how it turned and switched, it was you.

You were the one living it, you still are.

So don't stop, as foolish as that might be, don't stop.

2023-06-11 15:33:16 Her voice rang in my ears.
A tedious reminder-----

"Some stories don't have a happy ending.
They are tragedies, dressed as dreams of 'Happily ever after.'
Be careful of the lies you fall for, Dearest."

2023-06-11 13:26:15 Quest for meaning

In the depths of my pondering, questions arise,
Why do some riddles elude, despite my tries?
Are my words insufficient, unable to surmise,
Or is there a silence that truth implies?

Yet, an inner longing within me abides,
Seeking resolution, where clarity resides,
Do I deserve answers, as life's tides,
Or must I accept the unknown, where fate presides?

Unveiled mysteries leave a mark profound,
Yearning for enlightenment, my soul is bound,
A personal quest, seeking truths unbound,
In pursuit of meaning, where purpose is found.

《 FADED SCARS 》
Volume -1

Inferno of Apathy

I’m scared to lose you, even in my dreams,
Maybe one day I’ll fall like leaves that resign,
Crushed and broken by the footsteps of strangers,
My voice drowned out by their careless whispers.

But still, hope lingers in its quiet way,
A smile to float on love’s gentle sway.
No judgment passed, no worth weighed,
In calm waiting for so long, unafraid.

Though annoyance mixes with the tears brine,
And salt corrodes the ties that bind,
You couldn’t untangle, though you tried and tried,
In auroral light and twilight shade.

Why does greed so tightly bind?
Why do we hold onto what we cannot find?
Mysterious fragility, strong plea for more,
Easy attainment burns to the core.

In the fire of indifference it turns to ash,
Bone to dust in a solitary flash.
But still we reach for what we cannot grasp,
As if love could be held in a clasp.

2023-06-11 09:12:12 I think of you,
Even when I am not trying to,
A lot.
And when I am trying to,
I seem to not think of you enough.
And as truthful as that is,
I figured one mind isn’t enough for how much I want to think of you.

2023-06-11 04:10:08 We missed it on
the first dream out.
I crashed on those lips
And my, it felt like
hearts were triggered,
Like stars had collided,
And the world turned to night.
When I opened my eyes,
I figured she had gone
through the same fire.
And nothing was ever
as beautiful, to steal
one thing at the same time,
to want the same stars
in an immense galaxy;
to be burnt so pleasantly.
