the siren spell
reflective glint of silver bristles loosens the flow of amethyst braids, blush skin and a rose kiss that offers a promise as menacing as the danger of replacing the mirror with the naked eye
her siren song breaking the sinister waves vowed relief in the raging storm ears ringing with the lure of the caves "follow me" on a different, blissful frequency that pulls you down into her realm of alluring serenity and makes you wonder when you drowned
eyelids flutter to perceive an archway made up of gold entirely transforming any shade of doubt into the purity of belief in the magic of what has remained undiscovered under the surface of the horizon glittering miles above so high though the only view safe for the naked eye
the towers remain indescribable in shape and colour but the water has taken on a glint of coral a surrounding of promising poison of what has to be explored until the mystery of the white caves, and her marble likeness, the calming absence of the waves, and the emerald steps to the castle is no longer secrecy to those who are not meant to be under the enchantment of the deep sea
the rapture of the voice's pulse suggests a likeness to the might the siren iris holds as unknown as the towers intangible when you intrude with potential to blind, since the melody of the song there has been no sound for hours

cake
watching the warmest exchange, I shake, despite the fizz on my tongue, a humble air of confidence blurred with the organic draw to provide evoking slow impulses to linger wandering and seeking another collision, swaying thanks to sweetness and red, but I'd much rather say the palms and comforting loop I gravitate towards are needed because I'm swept off my feet
I've not been told these things to my face before being called stunning has not happened this way and it's not had any charm, I'm breaking romantic poeticness, but yeah, there's more, strawberry on my tongue and then it's dark, but we're okay
excitement for what I know nothing about and what I already adore, a sense of soft simplicity and naturally matched empathy in the shelter of a standard I'd deemed impossible, the audacity of mouthing absently what wasn't going to be said as a response to being called out, I said I was falling, so it's no surprise I was caught right in a comfort to soothe when, again, I shake it can't be a coincidence that you rhyme with something as great as cake

hindsight
I get first-class firsthand embarrassment
from the naivety
of romance poetry
because I romanticised
while I should have left
hoped for what would never happen
and never would last
and now I read it and I shiver at the
sheer obliviousness
which now puts me off
writing about the new excitement
purely due to the fear
of another premature cheer
the obesession with touch and scent
because what if it turns out the same
and reignites the cycle of when
I get first-class firsthand embarrassment

don’t you hate when people are right?
“maybe you'll meet someone there” she's smiling, she's joking but she's hoping and I roll my eyes because I love her and she wants me to be open, to see, but it's unlike guys to meet me
“he wasn't my type on the first date” and then he dated him for months, but I swipe left on any man who smokes, who can't take a photo to save his life why would I go out with someone where I don't see fate?
“dating apps are too shallow” and they're all talk until they actually meet someone in person, friends, or through friends but see, I'm an introvert, I like my phone, and I don't go anywhere and when I do, leave me and my friends alone
“when you already know them, you look past certain things” I said and I know I'm right, they're right, but 15 year old me is writing into her diary that maybe next year will be the year, it must be because I lost my best friend to a love letter and there was someone four thousand miles away and I never really have any interest in anyone and vice versa, maybe that's on me
“I'll stay with you” is the second thing I really pay attention to right after he tells my best friend that she seems too good for her ex she's the way to my heart, “you're stunning” I twirl, I'm tipsy and I'm scared because you see, it's unlike men to meet me “I'll stay with you” originally meant a few minutes but the two month mark is coming
“men are the worst” that's me, and her, and everyone else who's into them who has every right to say “we hate men” but he's everything I want, even though he's a virgo (perhaps the male scorpion has always been to poisonous for me) “I don't like your people” I said when I first heard, I guess I can't always be right

Al films
I can find the good in everything, let me prove this point, in this essay, I will- start off with Righteous Kill which had so much potential with plot twist and name reveal almost as good as the contemplation in Carlito's Way which had all this Mafia information and the rejection of it that is nowhere to be found in the 80s vibes and Miami vibes of Tony Montana or Michael Corleone's speranza americana and while there's more to Sonny's heist like diversity and an Oscar lost, we see another patron detective done at the 21st century's cost in The Son of No One and you might think I'm forgetting Colonel Frank Slade and his silly dance but you'll know there was nothing lost with that if you're a fan and think of The Scent of a Woman

magnetism
despite your darkness and serenity there's a light, a shimmer through the core and out the other side booming, thriving from far away igniting your aiepathy to see what the unknown has to offer in mirages and fantasy, the fabricated distance we seek to see untied
wild seas to reveal the pompousness of sanctity beyond your mind shadows cast by towering scenery demanding you to feel satisfaction of a certain kind when exploring, wandering, colour that is strange and sensation alien to you a fizzle on your tongue, a sense of bliss you never knew and a melody that sets your clock backwards
with imaginary lines blurred and priorities assessed no sky is the limit if you follow the promise of the stars' magnetic pull

the moon
the moon casts a darkness reaching, covering enshrouding me in lunar shelter that no one else can see and no insignificance can pierce; the craters all I think about the comfort in the pitch noir the way the light stays with me a constant reminder that I'm not alone and the key, the natural satellite not giving up on me; builds me a blanket fort to shut the menace out outside which makes me feel too bright and blue lights the cotton night so it can read the irreversible print to me and soothe my storms because the moon is synonymous with you

SCORPION (3 - my favourite)
There's a sort of satisfaction in thinking back to this momentary fraction of time when you meet someone that will have a temporary seat in your life and you never would have guessed the significance of the quest ahead; but with you, I'm never surprised my twin flame was never disguised as a stranger because she is the changer of my life
you deserve everything that is good my heart wants to sing when you're happy you deserve none of your pain and I want to be there without googling a plane when you need an umbrella in the rain
more than anyone you show me what it's like to be loved and I have never understood why you'd be worried I'll leave what a wonderful sparkle, glimmer, flame unconditional beyond anything until the universe comes to an end and far and infinitely beyond that you will be my very best friend

SCORPION (2)
against all nature, all the odds collision comes natural like thirst, the need for water. time passes and wastes, boiling and searing, hot and hotter and I want to drive, senses intertwined loud colours and joy and the open road tastes like chocolate and sweet bubbles thoughts are fizzling, growing wider I'm growing bolder
there's not much room for anything else too but tales of the planets and the limit of the sky swirling with the understanding that I can rely on horizon and pastel as much as on never spiraling, never going too far and past the ecstacy of the code of sunflowers and a tingling passion for imagination as expressive as the high notes of reality
warmth and shivers, detergent, blend it all with fuzzy lights off the motorway midnight spices and shakes; tiring faces and the exhaustion of pretense but I never grow tired of yours so let me get lost in the labyrinth of your complexity, intensity. I'll defend what you are: adventure, magnetic, utopian maybe just to me and other fish in the sparkling, poison ocean that combines familiarity and thrill of the scorpion

dawn
there is no might quite like the beams of the sun breaking through pastel pink clouds to inaugurate the celebration of a new day the king's might in the mist of the morning the tranquility of soft slumber and beginnings
in dew and breeze lies the magic of a walk in the empty streets, the stretch of your tired limbs after sleeping in the car, blinking into the sun after no sleep at all, the new dawn makes promises of adventure regardless of the hours past still life dipped into golden glow, illuminating droplets of life on green, breathe in the possibility of picture-book excitement just for the for a few minutes in which he sings the lunar queen to sleep, before taking control and guarding her until she wakes in all her glory

it’s me
a lack of encounters, an abundance of enthusiasm, desperation, desire to do everything right only for things to turn out wrong
it wasn't me.
might've been communication or the lack of it might've been the way your mind works and how little I understand might've been four thousand miles
maybe it was me.
I give too much I hope too fast I try so hard I fail I get left behind
it was me.

intergalactic
we all know about the enivitable transience have known since first asking about the concept of fading of stars of hope of death.
I see space and it's sucking to draw us all in the dooming embrace of nothing.
we want to know where it ends but it doesn't how can it not end? and if it did, what would be outside?
little things matter but they'll tell you they don't to make it seem less terrifying confront your fear and it'll fade
The inevitable doesn't fade.
so chase me

SCORPION
comfort shouldn't be this easy, shouldn't come this easy, shouldn't tingle the edges of my nerves, stop my heart and fuel the fire.
the water bond, natural and necessary and honestly, we're excluding you, it's just us.
speed up the beat, slow the pace so I can breathe out. I've been holding it in, the promise, the hope, the naivety. give me something.
space and mystery, a beat that is so bad that it's good. familiarity is this easy, I know, I've counted the days.

indifference
epitomy of bliss the art of just remaining unaffected
but I am affected, I am bothered, I care and I want to relate, strive to understand, to reach collision of minds and vulnerability a heavy crash or a breeze like the wind, brushing across goosebumps to soothe insecurity
and I reassure my worst critic I listen ease myself in, slowly at first and then all at once, it's easier like ice cold water, like a bandaid. I allow her to feel and she falls
And she says, she was right along and she's right She told me so She was I should've covered my ears, mirage indifference, and sung like a child, when they told me to listen
