Sickle sighs & potent lies eye mirrors & the traveler Follow him like a shadow Then delve into his heart and pull him into the meadow
Ignite the flame of rectitude But they burnt it to a crisp Let him trickle ruin through the towns Then move on to the next Don the sky in a cloak of brown
Liberty runs through the rivers Still he walks His brain is his haven And that abundance Is his sin
Original poem by me, as published on allpoetry.com
Thanks for reading <3

The Universe Listens
The numbness is spreading again
But this time, I've got a beer.
In my mind, I'm under the rain
trying to maneuver my life with a steer
I crash and tumble
My hands fumble as my body goes under
the many debris and oh shit, a rumble.
The storm is about to unleash in my mouth with a mumble.
But, is it worth it? Waiting for death,
like an old friend, hoping she'll get my last breath
Cause in truth, I'm not good.
My heart goes under a foetal position underneath
Bones are marred, tired and subdued
to a paltry life I wasn't even aware I had to live through.
Am I ungrateful for rejecting, life?
Am I deranged for wanting to end it all with a knife?
Slicing through veins, hoping to find what I've lost.
And what have I lost?
Everything. Everything even myself that I'm now a ghost.
Hoping to scream through these notes.
I want it all, yet the idea overwhelms me
I crave connection, but I'm not in sync
Not even with myself, and it bores the fuck out of me.
Wish I just disappeared between ephemeral kisses and a blink.
Long forgotten to spare the rest
the image of me on which I created
Wish I could burn it, until ashes-type cremated
But even into these macabre plannings I must be the best.
Turns out I'm just average
What a fool to believe myself special
And oh my brain is ravaged
like a flower when it gets her torn petals
Am I a flower or a ghost?
Am I a bee or a lost hope?
Am I my own savior or the one that bleeds the most?
Am I a person or simply a tormented soul's host?
I don't know. Nor want to.
I don't know, nor need to know.
I don't know, nor crave to
I don't know, I've gotten slow
Am I needed?
Will I be craved the way a bitch in heat needs it's release?
Please tell me, Am I needed?
Or Will I have to live long enough get to be pleased?
Raw, tempting fury rising through,
A couple of breaths less and I'm almost there
My fingers touch her veil, but mere
Hoping to replace lady death is due.
It's just a matter of time
Like a fucking ticking bomb
Closer and closer to a defiled mind
waiting to burn everything at the least unsuspected whomp
Memories burn, body aches
Mind blossoms even if it takes
a million of tears to prove feeling of dying ain't fake
Life had to do a double take.
Someday the universe will listen,
I don't know if it works that way if honest
but I'm always ready, my cheeks glisten
mind rattled, thoughts everything but modest.
One day, I'm sure. It'll listen.

exhale
finger-picked guitar tornado
inside my chest
the newborn light of hope
to hear solace through the noise of regret
and let go of the crumbs that helped me cope
a soft pillow for the ones who raised me
can you see our fears aging?
caged birds afloat
I hope, I hope
-me (mooninspanish), 2021.

It’s been too many numbers
a fist full of wonders; all trapped in capsules
I should’ve jumped first
not looked over my shoulder
I’ll reserve a table
if you say it’ll be happily ever after
-
I don’t believe in fables
read enough fairy tales to know I’ll always love wrong
Princesses and paupers 
have me grasping for strings on puppets you’ll never meet
Give me the apple, the hood and cape, glass slippers
I transform in pages when you’re with me
-
oh love
I’m planting flowers in the bathtub
singing folk songs under porch lights
talking with strangers I’ll never know
just to get close enough
To see myself in your reflections
outside of bedrooms and climbing
for flags we’ll never know
Say its forever
without the threat of truth or dare

The little things (long)
It's the little things I do that prove I love you
Little things that you wouldn't notice of think of
Not unless I told you
Like back in 4th grade shaking my brother awake
Walking to school in the dark js to make it for breakfast
I didn't care about eating, I was too big to
I did care about the powered donuts they gave out though
The powered donuts that I held onto all day
The powered donuts I didn't dare touch, not until lunch
Not until lunch with him, I would sit with him eating our powered donuts making jokes we were too young to be making
But that was back in 4th grade, how about we fast-forward
Fast-forward to you
The little things I associated with you, the things I wouldn't do without you
Like drinking monsters
Putting on nails before seeing you, so I was forced to ask you to open my monsters,
Like watching shows I never would have if you didn't recommend Now they're my favorite and I rewatch them to feel comfort
Like library's, every time I see one I think of you
Like Legos every time I think of you
Libraries where we hung out
Legos we played within the kids sections, ignoring the dirty looks from parents
Legos like the post you sent me asking to build Legos with you,
You won't remember that though, so I'll pretend not to
I have to pretend I told you I have bad memory, but that was a lie
a lie to make you feel better about your bad memory
But I remember
I remember when you opened about your exes, complaining how they only ever gave you a single drawing
We were only friends then, but that night I swore
I swore if I ever got the chance, I would never treat you like that
I'd make you gifts upon gifts and I would save all my money to get you a motorcycle, I know you want one,
I know because you briefly mentioned it while walking home,
I swear I'd let you ride it, not like your ex you vent about
It's the little things Like how we contracted our jewelry
I had 2 pieces of yours, so to make it fair I gave you my newest favorite necklace
It was Overpriced like crazy, I wouldn't ever let anyone have it,
Not unless they are you
I still wear the ring we contacted, it was a birthday gift
I still wear it, but in secret, never around you
Out of fear that you may ask for it back
I play with it when I'm scared
And I put it on my Ring finger, wishing for it to be true one day
I won't wear it around you, you still have my necklace
You can't get it back unless you want to give me my necklace
I'm OK with never having the necklace again
I really couldn't care less for it, I js want to keep your ring
I keep it in my bag when I'm with you
Never thinking of giving it to you
I want a ring from you for the rest of my life
It's the little things
Like how I only started using Instagram bc you did
I posted things on my story hoping it would make you smile
Even when we didn't talk I would post things and think of you It's the little things,
l Like how over text I told you nobody could touch me because I'm scared of men
But I laugh around you, I let down my guard, We both sit on a couch, and I'll stretch out my legs,
Not caring if they touched you, in fact hoping that you would put your feet up too
Like how we sit in the kids section with all the stuffed animals
With my legs on yours, then yours on mine, it was kinda a blur
You know what wasn't though?
When your head was somehow in my lap, and you looked up at me Your eyes shimmering in the light
You have the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen
I wanted to stare into them for years
I wanted to tell you how much I loved them
How much I loved you
But I got scared I broke our amazing eye contact out of fear that you would see in my eyes that I am hopeless
Hopeless only for you
It's the little things
Like when I realized my mom was an alcoholic
I knew you were the only one I could talk to
I knew I could only talk to you bc you're the only one who would understand
You had mentioned once when we first met your dad use to be one
You were the only person I felt safe telling about my realization
It didn't matter that my friend was going through the same thing
I could only go to you
You were the only one that would understand
Bc while yes that friend was my best
You knew me in ways she didn't
Ways I didn't think I could open up
You showed me something new
You made me believe
It's the little things that made me fall in love with you
And it's forever, the little things I'll do to tell you I love you

Please, God, change the Song of Truth.
It’s almost as if you were here just like that night
Singing
Like an angel singing its song
For this oh so special night.
Yet,
Ever since you died out of this world,
The tune doesn’t sound the same anymore.
It sounds like a wavy record.
Like dogs fighting over a cat aggressively,
Barking so loud you could hear it from the moon.
I miss when your existence
Was just as true
As the once angelic tune that you came with.
The Song of Truth.
But now,
I wish the song weren’t true anymore.
Your life came with a beautiful melody,
And your death came with the sounds of weeping angels all around.
Please, God,
Change the Song of Truth.

Realm
I have since resigned myself to poetry
Satisfying my rage with rouge ink
Rather than to your face
In recollection I recall you
Once stumbling over me.
Today, I hold your story
Printed out on starched paper
I want to scratch my scalp raw
Skin myself till brain revealed
And stash your revelations inside.
On Monday, we’ll sit sideways
Clothed in sinful silence
And there is no substitute for speech
At least none that we can see
If only we could reconnect
Over coffee and tea.
- New Aged Love

Black eyeliner
surrounding blue eyes
like a storm cloud.
Feelings rising
like smoke in the air.
Black obsidian
pouring down,
make me free of will,
like ash from a volcano
erupted.

Heres a silly little poem!
You love them, You want them, but you could never reach them.
Will you still love them after their face is no longer obscured?
Will you still want them after the filter that once sheltered the laughable features is absent?
Honesty is always present, favorable or not.
It is always there, waiting for the moment to obstruct them.

"In the river, crystal clear I saw a lady who looked quite queer Her heart of gold and mine of coal Was all I saw, but now I see That she and I are quite alike Her heart of coal and mine of gold For in this land of dark and light Our hearts are all but one."

why, love, did you leave me here? my shirtsleeves made of ratty drapes, with a kitten to nurse?
why, love, i am but a woman and choice seems to elude me. stolen away by nefarious men, you did not come to my rescue.
selfish with drink and sorrow i did not lift a finger; bitterness overtook my once- saccharine soul.
when i gleamed with jewels, you found solace in the stone temple. i am but a woman, yet, my heart is simple and true.
you found me in the garden of saints. how fitting.
i found you in the garden of saints, and you tore off your robes of black; we fled into the crystalline night, i like a sparkling star
with your diamond necklaces.
that reflected the light in your loving eyes.

the moon seems so peaceful
the shimmering of the sun
brimming upon its surface unequal
to the feeling that I’ve won
another day I’ve stayed
even through the wretched waste
i take a deep breath, unswayed
as my day starts with haste
- B.
