Masters Of Limitations

Oh what dance partners you are,

a delicate work of pain.

Once pristine, now distressed,

an entanglement of wordless feelings.

Hollow howls corrupt the corridors of my lungs,

an anthem familiar to a few.

Slaves to the sun, slaves to the moon.

My nightmares riddled. My breathing shallow.

I feel like I’m drowning,

and my heart is the sea.

Depleting me to nothing but my pointe shoes.

malady

Waves caress my feet

as i look to the tragic sky

for not a ray of sunlight survived

broken up, the sun and sky

Brutal. Vengeful. Spiteful.

their wars moaned through storms

and their agoney in waves

Tormenting the sea slowly

she was altered for eternity

screams for help errumpted, but none came

a chaos caged in terror

she collected her tears

in lost treasures at the bottom

She fought hard

to purify the malady poisoning her soul

Desperate. Helpless. Hopeless.

one day the sun will rise again

and the sky will be bright and blue

one day she could be happy

resurrection

we’re more than what people think

when they see us together

you are the music to my poems

the rhythm to my soul

apart, we’re beautiful

together, we’re magical

i saw my dreams within your eyes

i found a home in your embrace

i felt the love i thought was gone

i touched the intangible

you colored my world with sunshine

painted stars in darkened alleys

for it was all black and grey before

for it was all meaningless and boring.

you cracked the code,

found your way to a heart

i swore was missing

emptied my world,

of loneliness and anguish

and filled it with joy,

happiness and a calm

i thought didn’t exist

you resurrected me.

December

i am learning to be kind to myself. it’s me against myself nobody else. that is what determines my soul’s wealth. falling apart, i was falling apart remember? but i picked myself up and put myself back together. my heart is like the weather of december. hard and solid as a rock. it’s got to be like that to protect the soft spots. my core is so soft. only a few can tell you that. cause there’s only a few that get close enough to see through the cracks.
