When I blink I see your face An expression I saw maybe once But strangely, Every day I see that face Every day I talk to you Even if you don’t know it Every day I try to call Even if you ignore it Every moment I have wished for you For your immortal love The curve of your mouth Fingertips on my back Why are you running? From something people dream of Why do I keep trying? Because I can sink into you Like sinking into warm milk I can melt into you Like butter melting into toast, You and...
You are just so dark So that when you have light parts They shine so strangely Like one firework every 3 hours And then you are so dark And I go quiet So I just sit around waiting for you to get a little light So that I can see it sometimes And maybe sometimes when there is light You look at me And you really see who I am And how much light I have But then you look at me blankly again And you just don’t care about you But you care about me And I care about you and me So I have 2 lots o...
Narcotics seem to be a hiding place No one can see you so clearly When you’re so high in space Dark dark things Are hidden by your wings And every little freckle Is a sparkling veil of stars Drugs can help you run But not very far We pretend you didn’t take them When your doing things to me You make me feel good You make me feel free Your heart is truly racing I pretend its because of me But all those drugs you’re taking Make you buzzy like a bee Making honey with me
I am broken I am burnt I am frozen And falling apart I am nothing I mean nothing now Without you to love me Nothing counts Nothing is lovely Nothing is kind Nothing is alive After my Nano died With your body My heart died With your shed blood My soul cried When you ascended My insides twisted and ripped You slipped away regardless Of how hard I gripped Onto your hand and begged you to stay Don’t go forever Nano It’s not too late To return to me And stitch my skin I promise I’ll forgive you Do...
Nano dearest I am sitting here You’ve never left me alone Trembling with fear I am scared in the dark Without you knitting Without you laughing Without you sitting Chuckling away At some old story Something silly I’ve done Or something naughty When again will I hear your step? When will you come home again? Not now or ever So I’ll wait in vain Just to see a shadow of you A drop or a breeze Would make me safe And put me at ease But nothing comes No footsteps, no wind No gentle scolding When I ...
i find this poem emotive and beautiful. its really the kind of poem i love. i love your use of imagery such as 'the hollow of my neck' and the last line is poignant and fits very well. well done
its great and lighthearted sounding, very sing-songy when read aloud but with a layer of irony, very nice use of rhythm and rhyme but slightly irregular, this works as it adds a charming akwardness to the sound well done
very good poem, well written but a little TOO well written, it seems like you have used too many long words, it lacks simplicity, so maybe take some unecessary words out coz its a bit of a mouthful, otherwise very nice poem
a very well shaped, full bodied piece, almost flawless. you describe the daddy long legs in a childish yet beautifully imaginative way, i love your use of language and metaphors. i think you definatley deserve to reach your goals. a pleasure to read
