Every laugh I hear Every smile I see They steal away A little piece of me The grains of my heart Are given freely I fall in love With you all, ideally Fantasies and Hypotheticals Sparks to life Joyful chemicals Take me away In your memories Let me live, idyllically
The comfort of your own bed To float inside your own head And recognise the sunset Setting under known skies A world you’d know with closed eyes The world that’s just your own size A familiar place to rest Where you can feel your best Like the birds that have their nest It’s the place we all call home But home is where the heart is and I’m homesick
despite the people who show they care sometimes I feel alone cast aside and left nowhere just thinking on my own I tell myself I shouldn’t worry “it’s all just in my head” it makes me want to say I’m sorry but I just hurt instead I just want to play along to relate and understand and even though I know it’s wrong it pains me deeply when I can’t
You try to open my eyes
To show me all of the lies
Show me vast open skies
Where everyone flies
But it's too good to be true
There's too much to fight through
And it's all out of view
As I wait here for you
All these sins to atone
They all cut to the bone
It's all I've ever known
I can't do this alone
An empty paper and dried ink
Given eternity I sit and think
Yet nothing ever comes to mind
With every try, no words to find
No words that can fully express
No terms or phrases that impress
Love was always my muse before
But nothing is good enough anymore
Every sentence is dull and cold
Where once they were so grand and bold
For in compare my words are useless
When my love for you just leaves me speechless
No words will ever truly seal, the meaning of what you make me feel.
Such a simple symphony
That plays before my ears
Comes when people leave me be
A song that no one hears
The sound of silence rings aloud
Whenever I'm alone
Disappears with every crowd
Turns to an ugly tone
When it's quiet I'm at peace
And wish for nothing more
Except for feelings to release
With whom that I adore
Wealth is peace and happiness by Lamii-Inkfeather, literature
Literature
Wealth is peace and happiness
This entire world is built
On but a single system
The ideas of old all spilt
No one seems to miss them
Restrictions and rules
Make up this life of ours
Surrounded by fools
Trapped in concrete towers
A history of simple joy
Seems to be forgotten
This world was once our toy
Now it's grey and rotten
I fell into the darkness, a long time ago and got tired of trying to climb out.
Now I drift, in the endless sea of black ink, looking up at the needlepoint spec of light, from which I fell above, wondering if I even remember what the warmth felt like.
Sometimes, someone falls, and I'll greet them like a long lost friend, drifting with them till they find their way beyond, further, or back into the light.
Here I am, the eternal ferryman of an ocean of nothingness, awaiting other fallen souls in hope that theirs is a better life than my own.
Stay with me or carry me with you, either way I won't complain.
I've made my home in this umbral stil
A young soul molded by the fire that burns in the forge of life
Made his inspiration, his elation, for every new creation
Never resting, always testing, be it forging sword or knife
So carry on, grip tight this fixation
Follow every dream and create every temptation.
The cat of chaos searches deep
Through every freak and every creep
To find the eyes he so desire
That burn with such destructive fire
Unfiltered longing for the world to end
Share the last, with love and friend
Together found the peace in mad
That break down heart-walls ironclad
Because whom would need humanity
When we embrace insanity.

There probably won't be a lot of poetry from my side over the next long amount of time.
My mind is currently occupied by school, and when free from that, I tend to set my brain to work on ideas and concept for a novel I'm planning on write at some point in the future.
Today, while taking a 3 km walk at 11 pm, I managed to finally come up with a name.
It's going to be called Andromorphism.
Was turned down by Rattle, they were running a theme called "Single Mothers" and well, I don't really fit that category.
I'll try to upload the submission poems over the next few weeks, little by little.
I'm having artblock, so I'm kind of just going to release those I already wrote.
