The Eternal Light

Poetry

[theeternallight]

I still love him...  The flame has died down but it continues to burn...  And I have a feeling it will never go out.

Infinite Mind

We walk around with our heads down

Trying to find meaning in the mind of the world that rests in our hands.

Eternally connected to the infinite through a portal less than

10 milometres flat.

Continuing on only to break for food and sleep,

Ever connected, the portal in our pockets and hearts,

Until... One day it's forgotten

For in the eyes before you

You see the mind of the world more clearly than ever.

And you start to weep because you realize that

You've been searching for this.

Searching for someone to bring you home.

Comfortable Uncomfortableness

I was wondering when it would happen

That comfortable uncomfortableness

The awkward but lovable silence when you realize that you CARE

You actually care what the person next to you is thinking about

And you wonder if they’re thinking about you

Because you’re thinking about them, and how their eyes seem to dig into you

But you don’t mind because those eyes seem to like what they see, to see clearly

And pull up everything pure, golden and light

And you want to keep staring and

Swimming in those beautiful bright eyes and everything else fades away and you know he feels it too and even

If you’re just getting carried away with your storytelling-author-dreamer brain, you can feel

SOMETHING…

God, you can feel some sort of truth

But you’ve felt this way before, been swept up in a car, music swimming so easily, protecting you, locking you in

But in those bright eyes you see yourself

Radiant, resplendent and real

And it’s effortless this time and unexplainable and strange

Why him?

Why now?

But you don’t question any further because it feels too good

This feeling, you remember it, it makes you feel human

Something you haven’t felt in a long time

And suddenly life isn’t just checking off lists and going through motions

Striving toward goals, a robot routine

It’s… real and meaningful and the moment

It’s… powerful and important and you remember

Everything you’ve learned so far but have just forgotten to remember

And you realize why you’re alive

And you remember why you came here in the first place

To have moments like these

And you remember that life isn’t so serious

And you feel like a child again

And suddenly the world is a playground

Your playground

Every worry fades away and you remember that everything is temporary and that there is only

This moment

You two together

And when you look into his eyes again

Your eyes miss and fall on his lips

He notices and realizes that his feelings are mutual

You both sit there squirming with anticipation

With the knowledge that you both are able to FEEL

And are thankful for that love

Are thankful for each other, for the reminder of how beautiful you both are

Each a reflection of something already whole, perfect, complete

And you long to stare into those beautiful bright eyes again

Because when you look into those eyes

You see truth

You see purity

And nothing else matters

But the fact that love is real

And though life is comedic screenplay

You’re happy to have been born a comedian

I don't just want to see you and smell you. I want to taste you.

I want to consume you and keep you forever inside myself.

Pernicious

I called Mom today and told her to reconsider

But she said it had already been done

The needle popping flesh, administering the poison.

The chemicals that will make everything okay now.

And I wanted to weep,

But there's nothing left now

In my chest but a gaping hole

Ebullient with sickness, pernicious disease and despair

An emptiness that thinks it's real

That tries to keep beating at a

Normal pace

Instead of thumping so godamn loud,

Threatening to burst through my ribcage to be let free,

To pop the wan, bloodless layer of flesh covering this fucking mess,

To never again have to feel

Her pain

And forever

Be free
