I will not think of you in the sunlight
and when night comes you are not on my mind
But
I dream and my soul aches
Because I have not yet learned how to stop loving you

*I walk with you through a field I once knew
Where the wheat has grown knee-high
You speak the silent language of dreams
We walk past the ancient walls broken by time
Ivy grows between the cracked stones

Wilfred Owen
[I saw his round mouth's crimson deepen as it fell],
Like a Sun, in his last deep hour;
Watched the magnificent recession of farewell,
Clouding, half gleam, half glower,
And a last splendour burn the heavens of his cheek.
And in his eyes
The cold stars lighting, very old and bleak,
In different skies.
(C) Wilfred Owen

I don't relate to
any of this anymore.
Buildings rip the sky
blocking out the light
of stellar smiles.
If I look out I can only
see for a few feet
not miles and miles.
I've worn out the soles
of my shoes
walking the streets
that sandpaper my soul.
I don't connect to
any of it anymore.
The lights on all night
pretending to be extra-
terrestrial
or the stacks of ads
that blockade my mail
But there aren't
any letters for me anyway
cause I don't relate to this
anymore.

She's all sharp edges
And geometric lines
Bold colors
Unraveling in twines
Touch her
And she'll fold up
Like a flower

I doubt how I might view love
but perhaps a poet could make me fall again
scream at me how I am needed
I have not seen it before
maybe a poet could yell so loud
I hate to write these things for love and hatred
yea you read it, did you even hear
did it speak into your mind like fire
that is my mind absolutely ablaze
I need to be heard, for the love of God
truly heard, have I ever really been
except when another poet reads my mind
if you do not have the time to see these cries
you will never truly know my mind
thus you can never truly love who I am
call me crazy, but the one I fall for
must read and relish every sickening word
for I am sick of pouring out my soul and being unheard
stop loving my outward appearance and love my freaking mind
because let me tell you it is pretty warped
and I am only honest here
so if you want to know me just READ
**how ****** hard is it
Sorry if I posted too much tonight. 5 days worth of pain and I am still not even close to feeling closure..

Madly in love I fell into claws and hooves
with the devil!
blinded was I to the hatred and lies
the more cruel, the harder I fell
trickery, deceit, he used me as a play thing
causing pain over and over again, yet I still felt love
I reveled in hope even knowing a Devil he was!
often leaving me alone then appearing inflicting harm on others
attempting to steal my child in a treacherous trick
how on earth could one love a devil

This is what I asked myself when I awoke
I had a dream I fell for The Devil. Literally the one and only. I do not know if I even believe in him but there it was in my mind all night. The dream is vague now thus the poem is. I wish I could remember more. I have no idea what this dream meant but I can only assume it means something.
