#poem about change

change

not my first poem and definitely not my best (wrote this for my boyfriend and he hasnt even read it yet)

she is unexpected,

but she arrives

when you are most in need

of her gifts.

she will take your blank face

in her hands,

and guide you.

you will resist her pull,

but she knows best.

she will lead you

to your light,

but still,

she will not rest.

she is wise,

but you will not listen to her

until you cannot live without

the light she provides.

this light is what you've needed

for all of these days,

spent alone,

in need of purpose.

she will leave when she is sure

that you won't turn off your light,

and when she returns,

you will be basking in it.

she will want to make it brighter,

but you have known so much darkness,

that just this light,

just this bright,

is just right.

she couldn't make it brighter if she tried.

Discovery

Coins tumble, tumble out of hand a mixture of polished metal silver and copper jumbled, jumbled deep into the recesses of comfy couch mistakes made buried deep lie in wait amid cushions covered in brawny plaids speak of treasures locked in fertile sand surprises in the soil awake, awake thanks to spring’s sprinkled bath wash away layered dirt open panes for light to…

Honestly there was a real missed opportunity for a scene involving Gale reading the player some of his poetry

[paranormaljones]

The way that even in the pilot Morse walks around like the human embodiment of an open wound just. augh. And he doesn't even know it but every moment where he's even a little bit sincere, he's just bleeding. His softness of manner when he meets Thursday for the first time and he's so carefully testing the waters to see if he's found someone who will believe in him. When he tries to describe his mother to Rosalind and stammers through voicing his raw fear of forgetting her. When he is shot down by condescending superiors and bites back like a dog that's been kicked too many times. Even with his hackles raised, you can see the bruises everywhere.

Emotional Rollercoaster

Alone In the middle of a crowded room Silent voices scream for recognition Fear Twists guts into compressed clay Paralyzing limbs, numbing throats Degradation Fills the ears of the emotionally injured Ruining scarce moments of hard-fought joy Depression Carries sinking hearts into oblivion Erasing memories of happiness felt Hands Reach out, begging for salvation Yearning for one…

i was thinking about this line from my fic:

But the fall had hurt, too. Because the wind had cut into his useless wings like knives, his skin and grace peeling away under the friction, and he had been looking right up at the multicoloured and unreachable expanse of sky just to see it fade from his eyes into dull greys.

and i came up with this. i hope the vision came through

three-chord prayer: i can trace my faith back to many people, but i can only owe it to the Lord

translation:

ila el abad el abeedeen, ameen: common formulation to end a prayer. "forever and ever, amen"

merci Seigneur, de l’avoir appelée à toi: thank you Lord, for calling her to you

ya Rab, barek el taree’, barek el siyyara, barek el ta’es, barekna: Lord, bless the road, bless the car, bless the weather, bless us

je crois, Seigneur; vient en aide à mon incrédulité/ouminou ya Sayed; fa aʿen ʿadama eemanee: "i believe, Lord; help my unbelief" in the respective languages

i don’t desire mediocre love. i want a love that is so deep, i want someone to drown in me.
