When the sky falls...

Dark Starry Night


 Sometimes, I stare at the dark sky in the evening to see if the stars are still there. It has been years since I felt the warmth of these majestic artifacts of light and heat, yet I still hope that maybe one day, I can find the warmth that once covered me during the coldest night.

Is it a bad thing to be weak? I think not. If anything, through our weaknesses we grow into the better versions of ourselves. But what if we are uncapable of filling the gap within by ourselves? What if that gap was once filled by someone else, someone that is no longer with us? Are we to be lost in time and lose our sight by the alluring illusions of the past? Or should we, somehow, hold on to something and move forward? We are all humans after all.

Despite being years and years away, their sight can be welcoming for those who want to feel adopted by those stars. Distance, then, is no matter. What matters is that how you feel and what you attach onto them.

Just a thought. What would I not sacrifice to see the sky fall above two hearts beating one after another, next to each other. 

None of this will be remembered tomorrow. But who cares? With a cold throne replacing the most beautiful sun, a walking corpse can only go so far.

Perhaps another poem soon. They are already finished anyways.

All Past Girls Now Sunny Meadows

 All Past Girls Now Sunny Meadows Not much of a tale dare we speak of and also bitter the tongue that speaks of it now, a vile beast that looms. Long have I grown meadows that once sprinkled with ashes, that smell like love. Once banquet for eyes, now a husk. All the meadows that I grew, and dare I say, quite a few, ruptured a fragment of my soul leaving the shell of a man. All the girls that I loved smelled like sunny meadows. Reminiscent of that bloom fills the heart, and the heart that blooms. All the girls that I loved smelled like sunny meadows. Like a smell that shall never leave but alas, one you never preserve. All the girls that I loved smelled like sunny meadows. Stems made of passion to stem the blood that soaks the petals. All the girls that I loved once danced in my meadows. Often rainy, we, the wet peasant, devoured the gifted, the above. All the girls that I loved once laid their compassion to rest. Where the hollow meadow grasped soaked their souls with peace. All t...

The Sundial in the Garden

Image
 The Sundial in the Garden The Sundial in the Garden —after afternoons unwitnessed Beneath the cloisters' sighing shade, Where ivy grieves the stone, I stand where lovers softly laid Their secrets into bone. I, time’s obedient servant, stay— A brass throat kissed by sun— Yet no warm hand has turned my way, Nor touched the hours I run. Around me drift the springtime pairs, With hair like drifting flame; Their fingers write in midday airs What I could never name. A head upon a chest reclines, Their temples in duet; Their breath explores each other's spines— A pact the soul forgets. I mark each pulse. I hear the knee Brush softly against thigh. Their shadows curl around the tree As mine just points and dies. Their laughter, like a distant song, Spins circles in the air— Not unlike that endless wheel That winds the windmill’s stare. They trace the arches of the brow, The jawline's sacred bend. The lips are doors they enter now And I, outside, preten...

Imbued Verses

Image
By Henry Doubnez Imbued Verses Singing a song whose words I do not know, but reflections that are imbued to my soul losing to my mind's projections. The feeling is always the same, starting with a stimulation. A prospering combustion that strikes the heart, never fading. I stare at my verse, seeing your name, never stopping my flame. And they pray that we meet thy sight, une rose ornée d’épines. Don't want to live in a world where my verses wither, like a flag furled not to show, but to burn my spirit for an isolation, now split. Looking back now I realize all that is written, an epilogue. A plastic chapter dedicated and a world that was never real. Dressed like a mirror, hoping that you notice not to shatter but to prosper my heart's matter and see the beauty you bring. Surface is shattered, the shell is  gone and freeing what is within an empty tomb, yet une rose qui fleurit and what a scent, cleansing my tomb. If this is how a song ends, whisper it but only from you can ...
