The Broken Man (Poem)

Cracked Shards fall off My Frame as I walk With myself being pale and almost white as chalk To the Destiny that lies to me just ahead To suicidal thoughts wishing myself to be Dead I hear the pain of this world, so full of hurt and of fear As I cherish all I own and the people I love dear I wonder where I will go, so laden full of guilt Which I desperately hide even though as I wilt For these were the times that my heart was full of Sorrow These times so dark where I fear the coming of Tomorrow And with a mind out of whack and my bones ready to Crack As my illness and my enemies do start their Attack For I am The Broken Man And My Pieces are scattered Everywhere As I cry over petty matters that do not scare And cry at the dangers that have me ensnared I cannot find peace in the things that I love And no salvation comes with the arrival of the Dove I just wish to fill the hunger that never sates Lest I lose my own mind and fall for a Terrible Fate

Unspoken

Stargazing in the midst of night Wishing upon all these falling lights Hoping for my voice to reach to you tonight but the waves just won’t don't die down. My mind seems to burst into lights, The sounds reverberates across midnight But nothing seems to come alive And my mind doesn’t seem to stay in line. How can everything be so blazing bright? How can I even break the ice? I may never again be sound of mind Will I ever wake up before I drown? My tears begin to turn to dust As my heart begins to break and rust Nothing I can do, I'm petrified Can you save me from these caliginous nights?

Autophagous by Nephaesus, literature

Autophagous

Unmissed, I pass your hips skipping favors, Clipping phoenix wings to burn your lips flavor While asphyxiated electrodes expose corroded temples, We fall for cognitive dissociation Decking our tongues with blood from Hypocrate's cup. Gulping gold scales, seven headed trails bruise skin Devils drenched in betadine dance frantically forcing themselves inside, While we devour poisoned silver grapes Filling our trachea with shrapnel shreds And our ribs bend convex-wise blending with an exploded synopsis. Harpies clutch the latch of our thoughts While we scratch the rest of our throats in chemical roars... And it's just a skeletal dance, A feast t

tread carefully

A storm is brewing- He felt a chill down his spine- He poured some whiskey - Took a soothing sip- He knew he was in for it- He squared his shoulders- Took a steady breath- She was furious with him- She entered the room- She looked quite stunning - Her hair escaping her pins- Her cheeks blushing pink- Hands on her slim hips- Her cool eyes shooting daggers- Oh he was in deep ! - He tries to calm her- She is having none of it- She is so angry ! - Shouting her fury- He tries to pay attention- He is distracted- She looks radiant - He wants to kiss her senseless- Cease her ragging storm- She starts to calm down- He approaches , carefully-

Mist

We would walk And we would cry And if we stopped Then we would die Yeah, that was the life He would sit beside the moon And I'd play a little tune I would bow and he would sway I would play and he would sing And he sang: La la la la La la la la A wolf's in the meadow To feel the sky twist La la la la La la la la The world's soil in shadow It's men in the mist There were men young and old Horses plated in gold As silver beams pierced our skin There I sat, a lonely girl With him I'd mourn this wicked world We would laugh and we would cry We would breathe and we would sigh And he sang: La la la la La la la la We lie in the meadow For Sorrow's

Making a Difference

Failed attempts to make a difference A terrible disease that spreads called ignorance They spit out dirt through their teeth Point at the homeless in the street Eggshells that are beneath my feet If I crack and fall I'll earn a beat Failed attempts to make a difference A terrible disease that spreads called gnorance Thieves that steal words and turn them to clay Deceiving devils that come out to play Sword in hand, these creatures I'll slay Sad to live in a word that isn't touched by the ray

My Lover's Funeral

My lover had his funeral I was left alone in a circle Everything became so silent Except the noises in my head were vibrant "Where did he go?" my mind screams But I can only see him in my dreams My body ached for its missing piece All my voice could say is "come back please" My eyes teared for the lost images All that separated us was distances Was breathing through corrupted lungs Everyone stared at me and tied their tongues Apologies were sent to me But in them I can find no key To unlock the torment that I fell in My world become so narrow its like it's a coffin Stay strong for good times will come But I'm introduced to the feeling o

My Dearest Mom by Reham-Y, literature

Literature

My Dearest Mom

A beautiful blossoming flower Has the most sweetest power To devour you with love and kindness Is her ultimate ability her highness Forever a queen in my eyes She's beyond fair and wise Has a heart that warms my soul She is the light to my black hole An angel that guides me to the right path Helped me in school and corrected my math Sang me French lullabies at night Told me tales of princesses and knights A smile that somehow reaches my heart Ignored my grades and believed I'm smart Watches me sleep which is creepy at times forgiveness is what I get from my crimes Those three words are never enough So I'll just thank you and the God above

I wish I couldn't feel anything

I got to swallow my sorrows Cause there are no more tears to fall I got to slip my mask on, mask of indifference… While I still drown inside… I wish I didn't feel anything… Cause your feelings are long gone And your heart is not mine anymore I got distant a bit, yes But you pulled away fast Crashed all the bridges between And set fire to the train The train of my heart destined to fall To break, to burn… Now I’m standing on the side of the cliff With you on the other side Looking with unseeing eyes Crying with unseen tears Screaming with unheard voice The black void under my feet Dark, deep, horrendous With no b

how we fall apart

Us, our love Fire, Hungry, flaming Holding us in her burning embrace We, her fuel And we burn, unknowing… Me, my life A kiss, Burning, taking my soul away Leaving nothing But you, carved in my heart… You, your shoulders A cornerstone, Taking my pain away Believing for a moment That everything is alright… Me, my smile Joy, Warming my heart Filling me with hope Fragile, shimmering… You, your heart Fear, Freezing you to the bones Taking away All we had, little by little… Me, my tears Sorrow, Drowning me in my heart Unbelieving You’re going, forever now… You, your words Doubt, Filling everything, t
