a world that kept turning; out of control out of my mind; nowhere to go life just a blur of radiance and regret focus never offered; but everything taken eyes forced shut; to rid them of the blear veil of haunted humor; equally blinding no reprieve from turmoil emptiness as the mass still grows engulfing the last of me with it space so vast; but so empty yet crowded in ignorance; mobbed by lack of empathy they are all too near; I see just one clearly who was once also dim now shines bright unexpected; remarkable in their anguish clarity for the likes of strangers; similarities unforeseen a gaze converges onto another unalike; but understanding of compassion familiar and broken; while still so unknown a world that kept turning the two of us let it go out of control *

taken by a delicate hand; ever so soft in touch
a menace by any other name led across a bridge of weakened glass; cracks beginning to form broken like me she promised we would make it; a lie like all the others her smile masks the misery the further I go; the less in control giving her everything but what she desires; I no longer own the fracture thrives within every step brings pain; the reminder of what not to be of what not to feel soon this bridge will fail bury me beneath soon this bridge will fail help me to believe we were never alone; they’ve been watching from above my mind shatters she will never stop needing; he benefits from situation taking away the rest of me vision narrows ‘til she is all I see; demons thriving in the dark striking out in fear a hand felt no longer; taken by another life lost in balance things were never true; just dreams of damned beauty time the certain enemy crushed by the sorrow of missed opportunity; a laugh lost to fate forever falling into me soon this bridge will fail bury me beneath soon this bridge will fail help me just to breath We march along to the beating drums; hearts in tune
step after step towards another mistake a legion of folly and guile; climbing ever higher we’ll be left with nothing; once a pinnacle is reached so why won’t we stop why can’t I stop It was only a brief moment; drowning in the delight of your eyes
wit masking the subtle undertone of something more a sadness as sharp as expression; reflection in a sense of disquietude what is it that troubles such a savvy mind what rests in the gale of your ethereal existence why am I so intrigued by it all; by you fascination for more than just the storm the cyclone of what creates you urges me to explore will it lay waste to a future built by illusion; a place that was never true constructed out of fantasy; from only just that brief moment the whirlwind has engulfed me as it has you  she drifts across the lonely waters; at peace with the world
lifeline for a life lost; disregarded now what is an existence if not your own to embrace the water comforts her; more than any one being could meaningless praise can not compare to the currents take her further away now; to a place we can not touch cold empty hollowness of the sea; a tide that brings an assurance who is to say it is so wrong; are we not our own makers water takes her ever far away to a better place a peace of mind Wave goodbye to what we were; a hand falls following Kingdoms of courage and cost; ashes of loss Her banner set ablaze; my courage torched with it No chance to bare an heir; no hope for reprieve Our world brought down around her crown Ambition quivers in the wind; the arrow flies further Tears that flow down crimson cheeks; a dagger plunged into her back Which shall slow to a stop first? A palace worth remembering; forgotten shambles of defeat She believed us to be better; iron forged with the strength of promise Her silken shawl of halcyon became a beckon of torment Forever is her beauty lost; sullied by the blood of despair We stood before her as one; laid to rest together My sword joins her circlet of mishap; omitted by the victorious Doomed to be buried; traitors of sensibility In her place a new crown to bring down I never was a part of you; a silent destruction of expectations All the pieces placed down upon your feet; a shadow made of rejection Nevermore do I follow a false promise; a fate of wandering deceit You could take it all away; all but that part of me My not so secret obsession; delusions borne from desires It took away my purity; a monster I’ve become Compulsion eats away the senses; the need grows stronger One thousand ways to make it true; terrible things done to you They converge in the middle; unabashed lust and loathing Uncontrollable thoughts a torrent; the world is spinning Further and further away; from the reality and actuality Hate and love intertwine my mind like rope; strangling rationality Please take it all away This part of me I get a kick out of browsing the Wish ads on Facebook and felt like sharing some of the weirder ones that I came across today. -C.H.  Listen to the others now; loud in their discontent Voices shattering conventional silence; hate from a place of ignorance They shout your name; meaningless and hollow Misguided and afraid Speak your words of lust; of the faint elegance between Let harmony entwine the two of you; a kind reprieve from evil nearby Perfection of her saccharine impurities; not lost on you at least Sensible and tranquil Delicate touch of a hand in your own; a disputed embrace among the multitude Sensations of unbridled bliss; beside oneself in paradise Together in a quiet meadow; blood red roses checkered about Forbidden amity of passion burning bright See her love before you now grow; defiance of the wicked They know not of such purity; of nothing as real as this Two hearts find a way together; a troubled path to a place of honest beauty Sweet emotion built upon fickle petals of misplaced fear  A lone blade of grass; born upon the circumstance of crown Royal appurtenance short lived A deception by blood; set forth a justification of future treason Mother loves another; cast away by a listless thought of lust Who now claims an undesirable? What place does discarded luxury have? They see you as nothing; to bandy the living as if insignificant From the comfort of nobility to the pits of manmade avarice But you have something still; polish and a blackened heart He leads a conquest that will eradicate your people; but you pay no mind In you a purpose seen; the remnants of a golden past Chance given though unusual; in return a want naught but of loyalty A request for your voice made; discovery of love that smolders deep within You had the chance to flee; but what was there to go back to but treachery? Home was found with them; built upon the ashes of your erstwhile culture Allegiance burned through your heart like a field on fire; blind obedience replaced by devotion You become something entirely different; the betrayed who became the final betrayer A princess of nothing who would bear a burden of drastic decimation La Malinche; a malachite conqueror born upon the circumstance of abandonment |
