Sleep-keeping

I have been meaning to keep

the dark and desolate sleep

from the crafty claws of dreams,

but sleep flows away in streams.

Again I woke up in my bed,

gasping, tired, agony led,

darkness is my only domain

where all the happy thoughts are slain.

Staring at something I know,

I spend the night buried in snow—

snow of melancholic muse

hued in red and grey: abstruse!

Occasional tapping of the window,

the tap's continual orchestra,

shuffling of feet, fast and slow,

the cicada's anaphora.

Sleep then comes to me, slow

until I crumble like snow.

Fall

It's that time of the year again. When the evenings grow colder, and your clothes get warmer. And it's time for the plaid shirts and short skirts and cardigans and coats and boots to be worn, to wrap that pretty scarf and braid your hair in that absolutely wonderful braid you learnt to do. It's about to be Halloween and you could be everything you wanted to be and more. It's that time of the year, when everything gets exciting and the air is full of festive cheer that you get caught up in.

The leaves spin around you, during late afternoon walks, and the breeze is saturated with the scent of memories of everything and it's touch is soft and heavy on your cheek. The mornings are misty daydreams that are too cold to be gorgeous, yet they are, and the dewy air traces long past tales on your skin as you step out. The evenings are colder than ever and it's absolute foolishness to go for late night grocery shopping, but you do so anyway. And the best part is when the day finishes and you can wear that soft hoodie over your ultra soft night suit and curl up with that favourite blanket for movie night.

Fall brings the incandescent glow to the cheeks that only nostalgia can. It's the bittersweet ache of goodbyes and the longing for that old love...fall is that old lover who was the right person, wrong time...who hurt you, but you hurt them too. It's the touch of a long forgotten hand, the ache in your heart from missing someone, the warmth in your heart because of your love for them. Fall heals and breaks your heart, it's contradictions and ironies and poems you don't understand completely, yet you completely feel and relate to, it's hope that grows weaker and a will that grows stronger, it's letting go and getting closure and welcoming the old and the new...it's absolutely wonderful and fantastically gorgeous.

Tis the damn season, after all

like it should’ve been

it’s fine

when i try

to not look

when you roll

your eyes

cause you like

to keep the fine line

between us thin

as it’s always been

lets

not act

so crass

pretend like

i’m the ass

when all i’ve done

is think of you as a friend

like it should have been

cause

you chased

and you didn’t attract

damn near

gave me

a heart attack

when you told me that

our love affair was fading back

tried to make me

feel as though i was at lack

like i was some build a girl

you bought off the rack

well

little did you know i’ve developed a nack

from keeping my mind off of sin

keeping good friends

fingertips

away from my chin

one bad thing

that’s keeping you away

when you didn’t notice

and couldn’t take a hint

you broke that wall

like we were berlin

all those things let out

that should’ve been kept within

but you know it’s ok

new beginnings always

have to begin

but there’s one last thing

that’s breaking me out

through my skin

the type of

thing that leaves you in ruins

cause you know and i know

this isn’t how it should’ve been

A Home of My Own

By the lake, I sit and stare

at fireflies and unaware

of mom's constant dinner call,

on that night's starry shawl.

My pupils catch all of them,

and then I catch the stars too.

I go looking for a gem—

one for me and one for you.

The lake is singing its own song

and my longing grew so strong

that I jumped in for the moon

but I scooped it on a spoon.

I took the "smoon" to my mom,

but it slipped and was gone.

I sobbed for I broke the moon,

but mom kissed my forehead soon.

I just wanna throw myself into my mothers Arms and cry

And cry and cry

Tell her about how I’m so scared

All the time

How I tread on eggshells around my shadow

How I wish I could be safe again

I wish I could float back down into my body

Make it mine again

Unconditionally

Admiring Him

In the symphony of existence, his voice resonates like a sonnet, his eyes narrate tales untold, his smile unveils chapters of joy. His moles are poetic constellations on the canvas of his skin, and his veiny arms carry the strength of a thousand stories. The crinkles around his eyes are whispers of laughter etched in time, while the scrunch of his nose is a charming punctuation mark in the prose of his expressions. His laughter and giggles compose a melody that echoes in the chambers of my heart, driving me to the brink of delightful madness. Adoration blooms, an invisible garden nurtured by the essence of his being. A silent witness, I cherish him from afar, content in the knowledge that his happiness, health, and the sweet nectar of life are paramount. Unseen, my affections linger, a delicate secret woven into the tapestry of his world. His smile, a masterpiece, possesses the alchemical power to melt my soul, elevate my spirits, and evoke an unabashed blush, like petals kissed by the dawn. For he is not just a person; he is my favorite chapter in the book of life, a tale I revisit with every heartbeat.

Steve Harrington but he’s the Lady of Shalott.

❝ there she weaves by night and day // a magic web with colours gay // she has heard a whisper say // a curse is on her, if she stay // to look down on Camelot ❞

Also yes. Eddie is indeed Lancelot
