"I wish you could see yourself the way I see you."

Because you've never seen me the way I see myself.

The awareness of my flaws,

The guilt of my faults,

How I let my skin be the test of my claws.

I purposely watch myself fall —

— apart.

I pull myself apart from others when I need comfort the most,

The fear of their reaction to my thoughts weigh the same as gold's cost,

I always wander deeper into my mind – despite being already lost.

I wish I could experience myself the way others do.

I'm apparently both sunshine and rain,

Yet a storm roars in my mind, blocking the sun's view.

Forgotten Art

A new chapter was emerging

and one I didn’t feel I had

the time

to witness

.

Loneliness

is a forgotten art

and a dimly lit bedroom

I call upon

.

Unkempt

In my hot arms

folding into

the covers of gravity

.

I learned little

jumping from one host

to the next

digging

.

Flesh on flesh

forgotten (you will always have meant something to me)

Feels

(like a season for now)

finished

.

My aesthetic is writing elegant, flowery poetry with darker meanings while listening to Death Metal

[fuusikavihikumonoloogid]

Istun kesk lagedaid välju Jälgides, kuis minema ruttad Ei tea, kust tuled, kuhu lähed Nii kiiresti kogu aeg tõttad

Tule siia, istu mu kõrvale Hetkeks sa peatu vaid olen sind oodanud kaua Keset trööstituid tühermaid

Räägime minevikust, olevikust Tulevikku puudutada ei julge Tahaks jäädagi sinuga siia Kuid ei tea, kuis rada kulgeb

Saadan sind natuke maad Kui taas minema pead Nukrameelsus valitseb hinges Mõistan, et tahad vaid head

Ainus lohutus on teadmine Et südames oled sa minuga Kui vahemaa meid lahutab Siis tea, et püsin sinuga
