I Just Can't


Failed attempts and contemplation
disarray of thoughts
the pen awaits the warmth of a grip
the parchment lays alone and bare.

You shall not, you shall never,
The hissing wind singes my mind
a gelid tone that stings my spine, and I tremble -
compelled to cower, too terrified to blink.

But hopes are merely hopes
void, forever, of sense and prudence
yet clad in appalling nescience
benighted souls look for their insignificant dreams.

So through meandering thoughts I shall wade
when I let my curtains down
and unnamed ghouls aimlessly wander 
down the silent boulevard.

You

You told me You could see galaxies spiraling in my eyes that I was the silver trail of moonlight in your darkest night. I tore my walls down and grew a garden that bloomed into vivid colours so we could dance among the flowers. Heaven once felt so seamless until it began to crack and all the stars we counted faded into black. It's funny how when you're sprawled helplessly on the ground gasping for air the deafening silence sets in; you can hear your heart shatter and your soul dissolves into the bloody red mess that is you.

Head In The Clouds

I had a feeling September was going to be pretty awesome.  And I guess it really is. :)

I Am (Not)

Sometimes I am calm like the first ray of sunlight at dawn shimmering upon the sea. And sometimes, when I am not I am   a raging tempest tearing shores apart I am an earthquake  still and cold as I watch them crumble to dust I am the devouring fire from a dragon's breath searing the night, and lighting up the sky  - a burning red. I am the burn  that lingers in your eyes when you wake up  from crying yourself to sleep; The throbbing pain in your head from losing count of Jamesons you drowned in. Sometimes I am calm but sometimes, when I'm not - nessun dorma.
