Here is a poem I wrote up a few weeks ago ago. It's a little dark but I was just feeling a little down at the time.



I lack the understanding to understand
How even together and hand in hand
Our consciousnesses are so apart
As if you’re the light and I’m stuck in the dark

Even when I touch you I do not reach you
Even when I listen, I cannot hear you
If these barriers are not physical
Then is our love not even spiritual

The separation kills me
My attempts to coax a smile become vile in your eyes
Am I nothing more than a nuisance
Is your disproval simply a breakup in disguise

Were we simply convenient strangers
Loving one another as puppets being pulled by invisible threads
Is it your thread I cut in an attempt to slay the distance between us
Did by love I severe your desire

Let me coax my blade to strike once more
Let it cut my heart from my chest
Let my skin turn cold and grey from pore to pore
Let my death be the kindling for your love
So that my corpse may see your smile once more

Will you hold my hand in a final embrace
As I lay before you will you weep
Or will my intentions once again find only frustration in your eyes
As I walk through the valley of death will I not find your love in my demise
