Scarlet Niamh
What is justified about you sitting there,
the devil's grin on your face,
when she is crumbling to the floor?
You touched her, moved her, forced her.
Now, she's gone.
She spelled it out for you
but your illiterate limbs moved on anyway,
and now her heart is disintegrating
from the horrors you put her through.
How did a boy like you ever
deserve a woman like her?
~~ Don't let them scare you. ~~
Orange orb softly stave ~
Thy kiss upon the open sea
Nor melt behind horizon free,
Or nimbly flee, from sight
Not ere shedding citrus light
To skim across glassy wave ~
Hover there, but yet a spell
And in this frame pray thee dwell.
To look upon thy calming grace,
Thy soft glow upon weary face.

for him i write
but my hands are never able to catch up
with my thoughts
and my thoughts for him are messy,
they spread far out
so quickly and suddenly
when my heart is bursting—
such love is not meant to be kept to one's self
so my feelings run and run
i never know where they go
or where they're meant to be

but i hope they somehow find
their way to you.

Today I attended a farewell,
Something people stated one cannot miss,
So I write down what I witness,
I witness the memories of strangers,
Yet we share the same institution,
There is celebration,
Last lovers are embraced,
Some teary faced,
I witness a memory in the making,
The last of schooling,
The closest friends parting,
I have not been around,
Long enough to know these people,
Nor might I in the future,
Since people are happy,
And celebrations in the air,
I end my writings with,
Fare thee well strangers,
Fare thee well,
It was boring since I don't have ah friends but I still went for it

and now I'm suffocating - not from lack of oxygen but from lack of hope,
a lack of feeling alive and ability to cope;
instead I'm drowning in pain with my chest exploding and my heart aching,
waiting for my demise because I'm so tired and inside I'm breaking.

Raging tides, Silent waters,  
Squalling back to reminiscent eons
Ethereal beauty to a much grander design
Under a radiant sun an azure skies
She died under my ***** blue eyes

An ocean within me pulsating
Through my veins
From the cradle to the grave
A mesmerizing force
A fragile balance,
Her silent breath
Fuels this vivid ever shining red….
