You defy all meaning
All logic
All truth
You are like a blizzard
In the desert
Or an earthquake
In the sky
Impossible,
Yet happening
Right before my eyes
I’ve grown accustomed to the quiet
That lie beyond my door
So it was all the more
Disquieting
When I heard voices from the floor
In the waves is the truth behind love. It doesn't burn like a fire, or dance like the wind. Love is the rippling, crashing, rising, falling, swaying, never-ceasing tide which crashes against the shores of my heart. Slowly chipping away at the rock-solid armor which protects the person who has been hurt one too many times.
these words are my burden
my suffering
my tears
these words are my heartbreak
and the pain of all my years
these poems are my hardships
my brokeness
my pain
these poems are what I write
to make it go away
I am stronger than
My demons
And bigger than
My faults
So why do i let them control me
As if i am nothing at all
This is neither what i expected, nor what I wanted.
I thought love was about fighting for something, not with someone- then i realized how similar the two concepts were. I understand now that i was fighting with you in order to protect myself, when really all I needed was you.
Denouement
The untying of knots
Resolving the loose ends
Or cutting them off
Tonight lets dance
Like daffodils
In a hurricane
Beautiful, flying
Braving the gusts
Of wind
That threaten to tear us
Apart
I knew i had to leave you
When sitting by your side
Began to feel painful
Instead of like home
Everyone loves the fall, it seems
But nobody ever thinks
About the tragedy befalls
Every fallen leaf
Their blood has been sucked out of them
Like a vampire with it's prey
And their bodies tumble helplessly
Like rain on a chilly day
And that crunching noise you love so much
When you tread upon the leaves?
You're stomping on their skeletons
And crushing skulls beneath your feet.
