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.

conversation without a kiss
our faces and body are hallowed and sickly,
corpses sat across from each other
when once we were ready to grow to be ugly
besides children we'd raise and mother
time marched forward
what feels so much faster and faster
and we die now across a table
rather than at bed-rest besides each other.

Beautiful from Ordinary Days
#EDIT: I added links to the post’s caption go click them.#I did this because people were mistaking the words as a poem. I love poems. it’s not a poem.#it’s a song from a musical that deserves more attention. go listen to the song. if you like it go listen to the musical. it’s fantastic#it’ll make you laugh and it’ll make you cry. could not recommend enough.#okay edit over. back to my og tags#long post#and I'm talking LONG like do you love the color of the sky long#today I am a nuisance to your dash#but it's in the name of art and beauty#ordinary days#musicals#paintings#art museum#post i made#i love lyrics#greatest hits

Hating Hatred
Dread and terror will be rising
from the bottom of my heart,
hate, and hate will start devising;
all your schemes shall fall apart.
Not one inch of my hatred then
will fill the emptiness you feel,
and love will only count to ten
before your heart can wholely heal.
You stabbed me with a smile so bright
that all remorse was swallowed in.
But I will not give in to spite
and that shall teach you how to win.

thine for moments; and of thine for many moments more.
collar me with soft-taloned pale hands,
thine eyes paled when sun doth skyward stand;
whence angels gaze down upon their wingless peers
moving upon each other as the Mother steers;
together fulfilling a long-standing astral decree
that only stood by thee am i content to be seen.
