Twilight's Veil
The sun slips down beyond the hills,
Painting the sky in amber trills.
The world is cloaked in twilight's veil,
As day gives way to shadows pale.
The trees stand silent, still as stone,
Their branches bare, their leaves long gone.
The crickets chirp a somber song,
As night's dark mantle lingers long.
A hush falls o'er the sleeping land,
As darkness takes it by the hand.
The moon...
Lost in this inverted world, i’m adrift,
My heart and mind in a constant rift.
The hard ground i once stood upon,
Has crumbled away, leaving me withdrawn.
I hang here, suspended in the air.
My world turned upside down.
In reality, i struggle to comprehend and love.
I feel a queasy unease,
As i cling onto this new existence with unease.
Everything i once knew has flipped and changed,
Leaving me ...
regrets linger
I knew he was fading,
His light slowly dimming.
Yet my life kept me tethered,
My visits started skimming.
I long to see his smile again,
Hear his gentle voice.
Have one more conversation.
If only I had gone sooner,
Seen his face one last time.
Maybe even held his wrinkly hands.
Heard his voice, still sublime.
The regret weighs heavily,
It’s overwhelming
A burden i will always b...
When i look in the mirror, i feel disgusted.
My chest tightens and i feel nauseous when i do.
I feel as if i look inhuman,
As if im an alien.
My long brown hair, my dark eyebags that i cant get rid of, my big thighs, and my ugly brown mole on my right cheek.
I’ve always thought it looked weird,
I’ve never been wrong either.
I probably do look weird.
This mirror that sits on this wall has seen e...
A single ray of light,
piercing through the veil of night,
Ignites the soul within,
Awakening the soul’s hidden den.
The warm morning sun shines through my window.
The birds chirp, a familiar sound.
Eyelids flutter, consciousness stirs.
Every morning, over and over again.
Its the same thing every day.
But this morning is different.
The colors seem more richer.
A spark ignites deep within my ches...
I have mixed emotions,
One day,the colors seem to brighten, sounds become more melodic and soothing for one day.
But inevitably, the next day a heaviness settles over me, weighing down my limbs and clouding my vision.
I dont like that feeling, The oppressive gloom
yet it comes, disturbing my peace.
Interractions with certain people seem to make me it worse.
Draining my energy until i long for so...
“shut up” others say when im too loud.
I always fall silent after hearing it.
When I’m quiet for too long, my legs start to shake and my throat thightens.
Theres always a tight feeling in my chest, a feeling to talk.
It makes me uncomfortable when its too quiet,
As if someone must say something so im comfortable once again.
As soon as someone tells me, “your too loud”
i feel weird.
As if I’m wrong...
