I hear it

Every day

“I love you”

That whisper

Made your voice sound like heaven

Made me constantly think of you

No matter what emotions I am feeling

I listen to your voice

And I feel instantly better

Your voice heals me

You heal me

You...

I am an apple far from its tree

Which is to say

I cuss when I step on a nail

But cry when I try to sing

And that when you put on

Your honeysuckle perfume

I can feel a meadow of wildflower bruises

Well up on my skin

That when I hear talk of god

I bow my head

And leave the room

That when I see something broken

I try to fix it

That when I see someone broken

I hold them

Because I am broken too

Like a...

it’s so silent, i can hear it.

It’s so soft, it hurts my ears.

i can feel the warning.

Not hear, but feel.

that’s the reason i have fear.

A wave of thunder from head to toes.

It shocks me that it makes me loose control.

It makes me download a real tear.

Not of what i’m going through,

But of what i can experience.

Imagine a person out looking up while it’s raining.

Looking around them and not find...

My screams rent the night, curdling the air

My bellows shift the moon, my moans are a prayer

My pillowcase is stained from the blacks of my eyes

My bookshelves are filled with failed plans I’ve devised

My fingers are dyed red from the blood of my pens

My soul’s painted black from too few amens

My bones are alight with the promise of more

My skin crawls with hope stashed atop Life’s trap door

M...

All is quite quiet out in the marsh.

You hear the reeds brush against each other

The quite chirp of insects

And the slow movement of crocs in the water.

Above it all, you hear is your heartbeat.

In your ears

Throughout your body the thrumming

Bump-bump of your heart

as you guide the boat along the waters surface.

The slightest brush of the paddle

Disturbing the tranquil silence ever so often.

Yo...

Endless waves of crashing tears.

Countless dreams of horrid nights.

Many deaths within the light.

Many lives turned to a fright.

A lot of screams for help at night.

A large amount of bloody dreams.

Turned all death-red, my queen, they gleam.

Glittering thunder, stretched far and wide.

Secret whispers, the nightmares come true.

The bloody-moon shining bright at night.

The light unable to ...

Booming

Crashing

Thundering

Loud

And it’s really close

And only getting closer

And closer

And closer

Until it says,

‘Help.’...

Tears running dry

As the time flies by

Sometimes its not enough

Sometimes life can be rough

Saying my goodbyes

As my mind wishes so

Wishing I could untie

My emotional plateau

The thundering whispers in my head

Makes me wanna cry

Wishing I can unset

Wishing I could try...

His whisper

Brushes against my ears,

Igniting curiosity

And fear unto

I walk in the shadows,

Holding my beating heart

Where is he,

Answer my plea!

His song of thunder

Sounds in the wind,

The darkness embraces my chill,

His voice an addictive pill

“Come to me, my darling”

He whispers with desire

And my heart moves faster

Breaking the protective plaster

The shadows boom

Like thunder anew ...

Before you came

I was nothing

And I was to blame

I’d sit and dream

Wishing, and hoping one day I’d be yours

It was a year

A year filled with endless regrets

And it was your voice, your words

That made me smile

The thundering whisper of your heart

“I was just trying to help you out.”

You had said

The first person in my life to care

To notice

And even though it was only a whisper

It was the only...
