Whatever Forever

The Two of Us (Intertwined)

she's so deep that

I cannot read her . . .

though I know . . .

she's a keeper

a kind who's hard to find

can't get her off my mind

she's so dreamy

an enigma, a mystery

she's everything to me

somehow, I feel complete

like it feels to come home

despite defeat . . .

by grand design

one day she'll be mine

and life will find . . .

the two of us intertwined

are you not . . . surprised

she's a page turner . . .

melodramatic . . .

. . . and mesmerizing

worth reading between

. . . every sublime line

Before Goodbye

we were going to . . .

intended to, but we

never did, it didn't happen

we never would land

those forever plans

then we drifted, slipped

apart, continents shifting

silently, invisibly, yet notably

evolution had other intentions

forces from other dimensions

that rendered us to history

eternally stuck in the rear view

mirror that blindsided us for life

forecast how long we . . .

would be before goodbye

until you'd no longer be mine

Never faked my "I miss you" and "I love you", Only thing I faked is "I'm Okay".

“Fuck it” – my final thought before making most decisions.

[honeydewrowe]

Fuckity Fuck

God I'm fucking tired

God I'm fucking spent

God I fucking wonder

Where the hell it went

All the fucking sparkle

All the fucking fun

Not sure what happened

But god I'm fucking done

I tried my fucking best

Did all I fucking could

It's time I give up

'Cause it's no fucking good

[poemnotes]

to my beloved friend.

[delicacysblog]

an overthinker never truly rests, never on the quietest days, the sound never really goes away.

every memory, every thought, every fear, every worry, is on constant reply.

an overthinker can love too hard, and feel too much, sometimes to the point of their own demise.

their heart can break over and over, for an overthinker, the pain never truly ends

and the quiet never comes.

Undone/Loaded Gun

what broke me,

built me

strengthened my resolve

nah, it's not killed me

you, who took me down

you, help polish my crown

I'd rather be the king of nothing

than something

to someone who means nothing

absolutely, fucking nothing

what shattered me

rebuilt me

stronger than before

then you walked in my door

opened my eyes

cleared up my overcast skies

I realized my dreams and more

what hurt me

was refusing to see the light

I turned from the sun

like I'd always done

that's when things

came undone

faster than bullets

from a loaded gun

Sunset Seranade

Deep within the forest for the trees

she moves, she stirs, she breathes

Her dreams rising on auspicious breeze

springtime love blossoming . . .

she's my sweet lily-of-the-valley . . .

beautifully arriving - just in time

The sweet caress of twilight brings him to me

a song carried on  the wind,

He colors every corner of my sky

with his heartfelt love

he is the beloved poetry of my heart

the only one who my soul embraces

My arms around her lithe waist

we waltz through the garden with such grace

Baby  . . . you're simply amazing

my crazy, wonderful, wildflower love

she's summer breeze, warm wind through my hair

my divine, sweet petunia rose of heaven

My laughter stirs, held in his breeze

such happiness in his arms rests

My heart dances giddy with joy

your love is my light by day and by night

he is the precious abode of my soul

uncomparable plenitude of our oneness

. . . fills me whole

I hope you have sex dreams about me tonight.

Hold Shadow

If you should become Shadow, my dearest heart, I will just learn To hold shadow close to my heart; I will just learn to kiss, Embrace, Adore, Encircle, Envelope, Caress, Your shadowy form; Your darkles adorn My soft fae heart; My love for you, unfettered, Uninhibited, Unchanged, Unaffected by any change in you. I am here, I am here to stay, No matter, no matter what Comes our way.

[small-town--r-deactivated202605]

Endured the battle

trying to win your heart.

To find yet again

I wasn't enough.

Everything gave was

the best of me.

Compatibility out of reach.

Somewhere in the burning

desire to love;

lacked compassion.

One's effort faded in time

with unrequited love to blame.

Not wrong to try and love you.

Not right to withstand

improper treatment

cast upon my feelings.

Freely given were insults;

As stones thrown at glass

shattering my heart.

I was lost in a way

Smoking away the days

Unpleasant adolescence

Hooked on anti depressants

It’s just another Tuesday

Drown me in toxic love

But tell me it’s not enough

‘It won’t do you any harm

Another false alarm’

Just hold on loosely

Is this the end?

Is this the end?

It tastes of disappointment

It tastes of resentment

They said I’d feel something

But my hands are numb

I touch your skin and feel nothing

Doll parts yet to come

It’s just another tragic Tuesday

11 o’clock already

Things aren’t as they seem

I was dying in the moonlight

Listening to distant screams

It’s just another tragic Tuesday
