are you ... back? might there be, perhaps, a poetryriotprompt in the near future?
After a very long hiatus, yes. I don't know if we'll do prompts again but it's possible. Don't hold me to that, though. Prompts are an INSANE amount of work.

I keep replaying it.
I'm sitting between your legs
Looking up at you as you speak to me about our future
I know that you can see it
Your eyes are not on me, but there already
Saving a space for us
As you struggle to put wild dreams into words
Reading writing on walls
I search your face
And I can see it.
This whole new world right there in your eyes
I watch your hands dance as you orchestrate this vision of our life
More life than I ever dared wish for
And I feel as if I've wandered into some church
Finding religion
And falling for the Messiah
I love you
And it scares me
Like the dying of old selves
And the fragility of new life
And the burning down of things to enrich the soil
Like blind faith and cult-like following
It scares me how badly I want to live forever
in your heart's deepest desires
I keep replaying it.
The moment I became yours.
// The Prophet //

absolute stillness
absent of all worry
i’m a moth in a night sky
unconcerned with which way the world turns
my eyes open at night
i cannot reveal to myself
what i haven’t spoken out loud
halcyon winds carry me into the night sky
we are two faceless people
our souls are filled with a loud silence
that the darkness cannot speak
when you open your mouth
i feel your breeze.

Always -
Is to be .
I will always hold your memories gently.
A binding contract that holds you and some thing together, always
It is a given.
Something that cannot be questioned, something that cannot be disputed nor will it ever be forgotten.
Always
It is the inability to forget your first loss
It is the memory of your first love
It is your first day in school
It is the moment you felt real pain for the first time
It is your shy smile you try so much not to show
Or the sadness in your eyes you that cannot be ignored.
These are memories that stay,
Always
A constant reminder to emphasize that some thing's never leave us

Bitter Sweet
Champagne glasses holding prosecco as we toast to good vibes Wish each other good health and good times See these moments stay with us through life Sharing good news with good wine  This moment is a good lie  Cause when it comes to good news its still you I wish was beside  Me when its time to tell these people  Goodbye.

A Story that matters
*
The thing about pain is
That once it has taught you
What you need to know
You cannot pretend
That you don't.
*
And so
As I move forward
With my share of learnings
There is no illusion
Whatsoever
*
That we never were
Nor ever would be
What I once thought
We just were
Before the pain
*
And even though in some ways
It is the same you
And the same I
Locked in the same rooms
Back to back
*
I know and can no longer pretend
That in the larger scheme of things
It's a story that matters
For it never did
Nor it ever will.
*

Some passing fad
I am diminished
A passing notion
I am unfinished
Some passing thought
You don't remember
Some passing through
You littered with embers
Some passing phase
I'm out of time
Some passing away
Some nevermind
-
_ Past /
( i hope it haunts )

i want to relive the truths i’ve been telling myself
my own illusions have the tendency to best me
sometimes the lies i tell myself
are the safest.
