Walking through a field of daises
They bask in her swift, melanin beauty
The sun melts into her skin
Desperately yearning to call it home
The sky loathes the distance between them
Wishing for her to bathe in its infinite glory
I need a mad lover
To show me
That the flare
In life still lives on
I want us
To fall into the sun
Together
And as we count
The rays
Watch out
For the butterflies
That dance awkwardly
To the music inside me
Wings fluttering against
My spine
Be careful when
Stars are painted
Onto the body of the sky
They lay there
Plastered
Admiring its
Boundless beauty
While forgetting to acknowledge
Their own shine and decadence
God watches
In silence
As the clouds gave birth To hundreds of limpid tears
The air became contaminated with the fresh smell of rain
Droplets, penetrating earth’s core melted swiftly onto its raw soil
All the colors of today
Blend into the blurred
Thoughts of yesterday
I can just taste
all the screams
Of tomorrow
While I touch
I murdered Time
With my bare hands
The stinging pain of
Forever stained
My fingers
My anxiety, blinded by
The past, was witness to it all
I remember
Tiny drops of water
Resting idly, scattered
Amongst a frail windshield
The sky painted with
Sheer colors of melancholy
The road tormented by
Rusty vehicles passing
Carelessly above its surface
The universe swallowed me whole
And waited to be immersed
With all my subtle particles
I watched as comets
Fought their way towards me
As they sunk into the most
This time last year the sky collapsed into a million transparent fragments. Clumsy bright flashes appeared & dispersed as if mimicking the actions of a heartbeat
If you could feel how much I missed you
You would see the stars groveling at your feet
You would wonder why they’re so far from home
Until they say that they miss the sight
Of two false lovers digging their way
Into each other, souls banging
I whisper my boldest dreams
To flowers
That are too busy
Caressing grass
To notice
I speak to mountains
About the height of my
Aspirations
But they cannot measure
In size
I scream to deaf skies
In the night I watched
My soundwaves touch the sky
Every word I’ve ever spoken
Came to life. It wasn’t until
I was floating on a cloud
Caressing the moon
That I realized
My love, why does my heart pump uncontrollably with a desire
only you can contain?
The beauty you behold is so powerful, it fills me with exquisite pain
It is only you I can trust with a secret so true, my time with you is coming to an end, a heart once
devil red now turned sky blue
