Silent I lay
I hear the whispers in the air
The violence in their words
Like slashes they wound deeply
The sun is about to set, preparing for the pain
The whispers haunting, why was I chosen?
These whispers are poison
They flow through my veins
I'm lost inside them
I'm not free of them
They're all lies
Their words mean nothing
I will not believe
I will not prevail
what kind of freak
would want
to
be
like me

Colors have faded away
All I see is shadows and shades of grey
There’s a man’s silhouette up the way
I hear faint whispers permeate
I wish his words crisper
But his voice is more distant
With each step he takes
I can hardly make it out
So I try to chase him down
As he walks the other way
I struggle to catch a glimpse
His stride looks eerily familiar however
I feel like I’ve known them forever
Wait that can’t possibly be
That silhouette is me
Or a symbol of what I will become
If I let my dreams drift away
So I refuse to succumb
To passiveness in any way

Locked away
Deep in my mind
There is a voice
It whispers

There are the whispers that call the crows and these crows are numbered three. They are named Gullibility, Doubt and Misery

If ever a time you lose your strength or become lost amongst the pain, then these three crows will ensure you never find your way

Gullibility you see, with eyes as black as mud, has razor claws always red for he always draws first blood

Doubt is quite plain but with ruffled feathers greyed. Not so much the specialist, but is best amongst the plague

And finally swoops Misery, bloodied beak on black. The final move in a worn out soul, Death's merciful attack
probably my best work. ever.

She took a form,
of whispers in slightly silent sounds.
A sad and helpless woman,
soft spoken, and slightly broken.

Last night I saw her.
My body went numb,
and quickly into the cold.
She held my nose and my mouth closed.

Her wet, long hair brushes against my cheek.
Quickly realizing the wetness is the blood on her own.
Intense bleeding scratches below her eyes,
and her eyes with an iris in disguise.

I hear her again.
The whispers, the loud silence.
Turning more harsh as I began to struggle loose.
The cacophony of noise and air pressure in my ears, her grip imitated a noose.

I can't breathe,
it's starting to hurt.
She won't let go and I can't move.
I claw at the side of my beds, and this she disapproves.

W A K E  T H E  *******  U P  .

She yells,
and I quickly jolt awake.
Panic mode ensues,
and my mind's bulb has burned my sanity's fuse.

I go erratic,
and I feel like I'm losing my mind.
She took a form,
from my mind's dark thunderstorm.

...

and I don't know how to escape from Her.
I saw and felt and heard Her yell at me last night. It scared me to the point where I felt sick and began to feel my chest hurt.

He cast upon her
A spellbound hell
One that ripped
Her pages in half

He acknowledged
All the pain within her
Then threw them
Out into the night

He broke curfew
with the wind
Subsided his destiny
To sit with her
Waiting for the magic
To Begin

He whistled and she howled
No One ever heard such a sound
As the night lingering
-- Jan 2018
Hollowed murmurs crawl
From shaken wells you've sprouted
From; ventured farther than most
who've pined for gold noons.

They call, reverent,
To the passion-oranges n'
decaying yellows,
to wrap you from winters foul grip.
But fail. And lay frozen in powdery
sweet dusk.
Summer glows but it's pallor stumbles into a glinting Autumn but then slips into a dead Winter. See Springs harkens to Summer's Ghosts and his rebirth.

The shadows paint my soul inside
and leave this trail for you to see
the darkest story where heroes die
and mortal souls beg to be free
I dance in dreams of joy and mourning
black tears without a care
and live out this dream set before me
midnight whispers in the air
Tony Oquendo Jan 2018
Dancing in the moonlit sky,  a silent melody
The snow begins to fill the night, falling gracefully
They spin and dance under the stars carried by the wind
As winter's song fills their hearts they dance and laugh and sing

A softly spoken whisper
like tender falling snow
I paint for you this picture
that my heart you come to know
