POEMS

Small pieces of something alive.

A home for poems, fragments and little bits of language I want to keep.

Kintsugi

Through a thousand thoughts and a thousand feelings,
Not once did your struggles make me falter.
Not once did I see your pain as a burden.
Not once did I believe your worth was any less than another.
Body, mind, and soul may shatter,
Yet every fracture can be gathered, mended with gold.
Blood, bones, and brain may scatter,
Still, I’ll be there, to kiss and hold forever.
Fractures, thoughts and spirits may be tender,
But no crack can dim the light in your laughter.
So please, baby, don’t say you’re broken.
I’ve seen your soul, and I see it shimmer.
I’m here for every part, every fault, every scar;
I’ve kissed your sorrow and found no pity to shelter but poetry to nurture.
Kintsugi may gild your heart with art,
But I loved every piece from the very start.

You are beauty

I built the stars for your beauty,
And yet when you smile you outshine them so easily,
I tried to show others my stars,
But they could not match your beauty.
I designed clouds of silk and webs to match your delicacy,
And yet when you past with a laugh on your lips they could not stand the reality,
I showed others my desire,
And yet they could not understand what I see in spider webbed fantasty.
I created a heart of gold and cotton to match your personality,
And still you carried it as if it weighed nothing compared to your vitality,
I carried it to my friends,
And not a single one could carry your hearts divinity.
My heart beats wildly around your kindness,
Yet my friends tell me to run from the enchantress,
My darling,
won’t you let me give you my soul in return for you caress?

Shining Thunder

If you were a sunny sky, I would lay out in the grass for lunch,
If you were a gentle downpour, I would dance in the rain all night long,
If you were a volcano’s wrath, I would study you every dawn,
If you were my lover, I’d love you til the end of the world
If you were a delicate butterfly, I’d find the finest flowers,
If you were a threatening storm, I’d dance to the beat of your thunder,
If you were a roaring wildfire, I’d embrace your loving warmth,
And since you are my lover, I’ll love you until the stars shine no more

Breaking Out

The chains creak and groan with hate,
Boiling my skin with taint,
Growing stronger, growing faster,
All in crazed madness and hunger for my freedom.
You cannot stop my detest,
My disgust veiled in adoration,
Though my chains may hold me tight,
It's your hands that dig into my heart I wish to break.
With my teeth I'll rip through you,
Someone inside of me begging you to run and leave me,
But even though this bubbling hate was not made for you,
I’ll wield against you.
I cannot remove it, I don’t wanna be without it,
I have thrived though this, I’ll see another sunny sky,
I hate to love you, and love you to much to hate you,
I wanna adore you in the dead of night, as deadly tears drown out the pain
Let me hear the chains rustle, taste copper on my tongue,
Feel rust encase my wrists, claws breaking skin,
Feel my desperation, for I will escape,
And make you regret waking me.

I'll be a millionaire

I'll make a fortune,
Spend it on a better day.
I'll make a million,
And my heart won't stray.
I will wait another day;
I'll be recognized in the light,
I will wait another night;
Loved as I love you, so bright.
Just wait, my love, and you'll see,
One day I'll be a millionaire,
Just wait one more day, for me,
Together, a life we will share.
Just one more day, my dear,
I'll make you a millionaire too,
Just like you make me feel,
Like a trillionaire with you.
Just wait till I make a fortune,
And the world will know my name,
Just wait till I can hold your hand,
In love's eternal flame.
I'll go down in history, it's true,
As the fool who spent her gold,
On her trillionaire girl, my heart,
Our love, a story forever told.
Give me just one more day.
