POETRY (2021)
FATED
The texture of you
Is like a that of a dragon
Armoured
​
You smell like triumph and sound like balance
Wearing thoughts around your neck
So proudly
​
Your proximity causes my quiver
On a scale of Great
And I can't deny I fear
Collapsing in your presence
​
Like a Redwood
Stiff and
Graceless
​
Yet somehow you give me peace
And comfort
Like that cozy white blanket
In that place I call home
And I feel your softness
Cocoon me
From your distance
​
The Grecian vibe of you
Feels like before
And I missed you so
​
But you don't know
You won't know
Its truth
​
Until you're breathless
Weightless
In the space of my eyes
​
Somehow, I feel
You fear me, too
​
And its as senseless
As the sixth circle
As wax wings
As bee stings
​
We've both had enough
Haven't we?
​
But if not this time
The next will do
​
Just know
I miss you
​
The details
Are irrelevant
To our eight, for
​
We design our own fates
We are patient
We can w8
​
When it rains inside my mind
as it does sometimes
I think of you and the sun
shines its light inside me
and it's blinding
​
It's rewinding
And I see the eras passed
And I feel free at last
because I see infinity
And through it
I still want to be here
with you
as you are this time
​
and the next
​
and a thousand nexts...
INSIDE
​
So rarely seen
The depths of trenches, chasms, abysses
Souls
​
But I saw you see
Clear into me
And I still can't believe
Must have been a lucid dream
Make-believe, an induced scene
(And I keep making excuses)
​
But, you let me see, too
Clear into you
You invited me
Opened the door freely
​
I fought not to enter
​
Mesmerized
Paralyzed, hypnotized
By the depth of your eyes
Instantly blind-ed
By the light
You shined
​
At me
In me
Through me
And now I see
You left an open door for me
I didn't even need a key
But the space seems so empty
​
Like the rest in music
​
Building anticipation
Levitation
Calcification
Of the possibility
The near-reality
Taming entropy
​
Feels like eternity
​
