I've been beaten, stabbed, shot, burned, poisoned, electrocuted, gassed, drowned, thrown from high above, suffocated, crushed, mauled, gored, frozen, rejected, abandoned, betrayed, erased, forgotten, replaced...
And I am heartbroken.
#poetry
Baby! Baby!
I don't know where you are
Can you hear me
Somewhere
Out there
Can you feel my beating heart?
I can't stand to be apart!
Please, please!
Let me see
The first glimpse of you
That, I've never seen...
#lyrical#poetry
You are ripe with age,
But not with delight.
You spit
On ordinary life.
You live fast,
And die trying.
You never grow old,
Without knowing, life.
#poetry
I'm in a state,
volatile,
with nowhere to escape.
This impending dread
is here to stay,
whispering peril
throughout the day.
I try to ignore it,
but it insists, persists
never once
showing its face.
#poetry
I cover my mouth
so they don't hear me breathe.
Careful where I plant my feet
in the faded dark
where I can barely see.
I'm trying to escape
to a place
far from me.
#poetry
In the dark
Where time doesn't exist
In the bitter cold
Where life is lifeless
No sound can reach
No sight remains
Only empty thoughts
Of what life became
#poetry
A melancholy song
That never ends
Stuck on a loop
Mocking your sadness
You can't leave the room
It plays in your head
No noise is loud enough
You know it by heart
There is no escape
Until you change your song
#poetry
The mouse before the golden-framed mirror
doesn't seem to be himself
He feels his ears are too big
his eyes not as inviting
his nose not as pronounced
He doesn't feel right in his own fur
And yet his clothes fit perfectly
his tail is fluffy
and he stands ready to face the world
My back is against the wall
That's the way I like it
I like to know where I stand
and when failure is imminent
Here
Now
The clock is ticking
The moment when character is built
and regret is lingering
#poetry
It starts
Like a fresh track on an old trail
I have to find it
Sometimes from the very beginning
But there's always a trace
And with the right kind of eyes
It will appear
