Every Day Poems

2023-06-11 02:02:32 Just once
I would like to be
the words,
that soothe your heart
not the blankspaces,
that set us apart. Open / Comment

like a snake with curses for venom;
You can choose to wrestle it or
wear it like a gown.

If those leaves were steps so green,
I would bound amid their vibrant sheen,
Playing melodies, sweet and keen,
Sweeping against the wind, serene.

Gazing at the distant sea's gleam,
I catch a glimpse of your presence, like a dream,
Since my wings grew, a soaring theme,
Embracing the air, a tender scheme.

This nature's tapestry, it seems,
We are all part of God's timeless scheme,
An eternal work, a sacred beam,
Where reality and fantasy teem.

And only a child like yourself would choose to conceal the words you adore so much, and use them as a blade against no one but yourself.

Only you, would hide behind a curtain of ashes from those you cherish the most and take a shelter of silence.

Only you, a child full of ego, would listen to me and pretend to deny me."

2023-06-10 16:36:26 I felt love when I fell for you, but I understood love when you fell for me.

Yet we don't have a complete definition of love, as to while our love keeps on growing, its definition keeps on increasing.

She cried.

"A mirage of forever."
I whispered.

2023-06-10 12:22:23 Uncensored from mouthpiece, awake at the echo of a voice.
I barely hang on this piano of black and white, fighting with the old me who tells me she can feel a horizon in your haze, but it is all rue in disguise. Maybe you sway back and forth maybe you don't but either way lowkey is not for me.

And I am good here in the clouds. I don't ever want my peace to be taken away. I could teach you how to play. I could teach you how to love. But why would I build you into a hu-man when you are a demon at your core?  Maybe you're scarred may be you're not but you have no right here with me anymore. Open / Comment

When we gaze at the stars,
Do they, in turn, grace us with their gaze?
Do they witness the striving in our souls,
And see the adoration our hearts raise?

Do they whisper enigmatic secrets from afar,
Yet remain beyond the reach of our mortal ears?
Can they perceive the fire within our being,
Or deem us cold, lost in our earthly fears?

Do the constellations hold a hidden language,
A tapestry of meaning woven in cosmic art?
Do they guide our stories across light's expanse,
Or watch as mere spectators from the start?

In this celestial tango, an eternal embrace,
We seek connection, yearning for a reply.
The questions linger, unanswered in the night,
Yet our wonder persists, as we gaze at the sky.

2023-06-10 08:08:19 Vermilion Eyes

I saw her once, a fleeting glimpse,
Crimson glint, those vermillion eyes.
My love, it sprang up in an instant,
A twinkle in the night sky.

My heart raced, my pulse pounded,
My spirit felt an invisible flame.
My soul soared, my mind abounded,
My thoughts, they were not the same.

I searched in vain for her vermillion eyes,
I searched for her, in high and low,
But I never found her, no matter how hard I tried,
I almost forgot about her in life's ebb and flow.

But when I thought all was lost,
I found her when I faced my own demise.
When I met those eyes again, in the afterlife,
I saw her for who she really was, my surprise.

For she was death herself,
The one I had been seeking forever.
