original poem : i can still see your wings

2nd attempt at contrapuntal poetry, this took way longer than i expected (;﹏;)

[starsbecoming]

icarus icarus icarus

[moonbecoming]

‘daughters becoming, moonbecoming

[starsbecoming]

not really poetry but just something i wrote ¡

[starsbecoming]

i watch from afar

as your mouth

opens

closes

swallows a moon-shaped star

i imagine it floating breathlessly

in your body

and i realize i am an animal

just as hungry as

you.

tell me

which dreads you more

who we could’ve been or

who we cannot help to be?

[moonbecoming]

‘Sadness becoming, moonbecoming

[starsbecoming]

a poem i wrote !!

also sorry for not posting i’m in a writer’s block again :\

[starsbecoming]

your grief feels welcome because it’s lived as your love all these years

[starsbecoming]

you're a good poet :3

what's your favourite poem you've written?

hihi and thanks for the question @thelingering ! i love all my poems but i feel like over time my style has changed a bunch and definitely will keep changing but

some of my favorites right now are: deer in the headlights and anger becoming (and several others as soon as i find the energy to finish them😣)

[starsbecoming]

i know the earth is shared but every once in a while i take a little piece for myself

[starsbecoming]

when you kissed me

for the first time

i think i might’ve saw God

might’ve even believed in him

just a little.

[starsbecoming]

how can i wish to be eternal

when some days

i don’t even want

to be alive long enough

for the summer grapes

to sour

i cling desperately

to preserve

everything i have now

wrapping it in layers of

saran wrap

like my mother taught me

with yesterday’s leftovers

and tomorrow’s ripe avocados

but how can i stop the death

of something that is

ready to let go

i grasp at fate

in the dark

like a child

again.

‘anger becoming, moonbecoming

[starsbecoming]

a lengthy poem i wrote (on a diff blog for longer/stylistic writing) !!

[starsbecoming]

deer in the headlights

i love what hurts me

i can’t help it

it happens in nature too

deers cross roads

knowing the metal

will not be comforting

hoping the crash

will feel like a momentary hug

a touch

of something more

than death.

[starsbecoming]

how do i tell my past i don’t want to live with her anymore

[starsbecoming]

i want to cry into your hands but i also hope the tears seep through because this is only my sadness to hold

[starsbecoming]

promise rings

rings on fingers

a promise to be better for the past the present

the future a budding youth the spring hums under

my skin a window to what will become of us

[starsbecoming]

when you found me in the darkness

we ran

hand in hand,

i thought it was a miracle

that we were escaping together

but you later told me

out of breath

and laughing

that it was your home

we had run from.

[starsbecoming]

the need

boredom gnawing at my brain

hunger a bruise with brown eyes

a cavity in the air

the need

not to fill but to consume

it all.

[starsbecoming]

i never thought this gentleness you taught me could be used for myself
