As much as I adore writing, when I put it onto a platform like so, I lose interest in writing, because now it is a chore and not because of my strong emotions and whimsical thoughts, so for now I’m going to use this platform and a diary of sorts and there may be some poems inside :)

i see you in the white of the snow, the green of the grass, the blue of the ocean, the red of autumn leaves. i see you in the songs of the monsoons, the paintings of the hurricanes, the hums of the tornadoes, the dance of summer storms. i see you. - i could never be blinded by you.

I love this very much, it’s enticing and inspiring

Ps, I love tumblr poets

Silver Lining

If I could be like you

I’d paint you skies of blue

I’ve never fit in anywhere

but I fit in with you

Instead I’ll paint a picture

Where I’m the only fixture

And I won’t want to fix her

With you I feel like I can speak

No longer in a whisper

9-1-22

Your life awaits. Warm and soul intact. Sweet and tempting.

Then, those who made you, Take from you, Drain you of everything You are.

Now cold and hollow. Bitter and repulsive. Yet, you still stand. You can be fulfilled again.

This is for the prompt “From the perspective of a coffee cup”. I immediately thought about what a life of a cup of coffee would be like. So the final product is less “Coffee witnessing life” and more “Coffee perceiving its own life”.

I love this concept

That’s what makes poetry so beautiful. It appreciates the little things, the things always overlooked and never thought on.

[writingsbynh]

But they’re only words…

It’s just words

Just something someone said

Words you’ve trusted

Words you’ve held onto

But they aren’t meant for you

No, you’ve got to let them go

They’re pulling you down

and away

From every good thing

You’ve had to say

Winters ahead

A voice is heard

In the winters sound

The snows icy wool

It’s glistening at the waters edge

It’s brewing and cooling all that’s dead

While a home is created among the fed

Can I Change?

I’ve got time on my hands

And hands on my time

Trying to take what’s already mine

I’d be lying if I said it was fine

But what can I do to change the line

The narrative of life

Sweet Death

I open my eyes and there I am

Floating on the open sea

My life is drifting away

Into the abyss of time and decay

It’s all fading behind me

Along the growing skyline

The waters beneath

Get deeper and deeper

As my hope sinks into its depths

The cold dark waters overcoming my breath

The Middle

Im in a place

Not sure where

I can’t see the front

And only a little of the past

I’m not sure where I’m at

Have I just gone past the beginning?

Or am I nearing the end?

All I know is this is somewhere

Somewhere in the middle

Rose-Colored Glasses

I’ve lost my

rose-colored glasses,

or they were stolen

on the way;

now, the world

around me passes

by in tedious

shades of gray.
