Stare into the void
The void stares back
Blow air kisses to the void
The void does a derpy chirp
Hops up
Approaches and taps needfully
Claws extended
Demanding the full extent of your attention
Purring loudly
Content
The Void
Tag: crappy poetry
communication
Jumbled word salad
An awkward attempt
To understand
To be understood
To share a simple sentiment.
Monkeys slamming typewriters
Somehow stumbled upon Shakespeare
And here I can't simply spit out
A truth that I hide:
I want you.
doomed
I will think of you in the deep quiet of the night
I will think of you in the ferocity of the storm
On the bright summer days
Through enduring drought
When the ice storms of winter
Bend the trees to the ground
I will think of you through every plague
Through frogs and swarms and blood
And through more modern apocalypses
I will think of you, I will think of you
I will think of you through laughter, tears
While huddled facing deep set fears
When I find myself in another's arms
When buried beneath my cairn
The past is past - I will never tell you
But I will never not think of you.
The Shallow End
Here is the lesson learnt:
Within the soil of your heart
Sow salt
Let nothing grow
Let it tick away the hours
Quietly, alone
Tighten the gaps in the wall
And lock the gate
And---
Wait.
Wait!
WAIT!

captive in a walled off heart
terrified to know
