dip those toes
in streams of unknown
wade through dreams
a peek of unseen
dust off the craze
walk into the maze
of secrets untold
a life will unfold
unforgotten it's luck
so **** it all up
then **** it back together
leave it for divine
fall back into time
spirits high, spirits low
binary divide
two lives intertwined
a master of none
what will become?
hold onto unknown
and find yourself a home
you are never, never alone
i dont even know what this is hahaha i'd love to hear your thoughts
Lily 2d
a crazy mother forgot
don't slap you in the face
shake your hand
rearrange the farce
remanded to that place
a foreign hole
godforsaken plains
fall from the plateau
and make yourself a home
scrape the dust
clean out your soul
and cry
let the water fall
rage steeped in love
drink from the cup
taste of days gone by
flavour of twisted lies
plant your seeds of hope
fix your gaze ahead
to the void of the unknown
hold your space
know your place
and do not forget
your are not
what you think you are
Lily 2d
I found me standing all alone
face of stone
bone exposed
spirit cried to dream again
mind wired to die pretend

fickle eyes, fickle lies
i'll hit this one home
i'm not surprised
it's not mine
a soldier on their own

your demise
will shine this time
taught me to lie
taught me to whine
taught me to always
waste my time

you've crossed my line
i think it's a sign
you'll set me on fire
again, you're a liar
but to my surprise
i'll always rise

the tale is old
or so it seems
the life you've lived
the life you've grieved

when i was just a little girl
my mother was my whole **** world
she used to get me on one knee
she used to love to sing to me
mother knows best
don't stray from the nest
it's you i adore
see you're not like the rest

and from that tune
our souls enmeshed
and from that tune
a plague infests
the plague of the caged
I was strained to be strayed
i was layed in my grave

fickle smile, you ******* child
don't test me with your words
i've flown away
from chains of hate
i've grieved the days
a fresh clean slate

can never unsee
what you did to me
but it's true that i have learned
from a rotten egg
from a festered nest
i fly away a free bird
So this is a mess I know, I wrote it years ago when I was very lost and confused and angry
Lily 2d
go on then, have a drink
remember how you used to think
remember how you used to ride
flying high in your fantasy
screaming, seemingly believing
'there's no way out for me'
in this sense you think you're free
on that road it's an easy dream
see the path to hell feels like heaven
that's if you want to die at twenty-seven
to love yourself an impossible feat
cause why would you want to risk it all?
why would you want to stumble and fall?
you've gotta run, you've gotta hide
you are just trying to ******* survive
give you a break it's no big deal
you don't even know whats real
smoke the days away
drink the pain away
but when will you learn
that the devils locked you in his cell
cause the road to heaven feels like hell
Inspired by the quote - 'The road to heaven feels like hell, the road to hell feels like heaven'

i am a gardener of souls
i plant seeds wherever i go
i feed those in hunger
i water those in thirst

i am a gardener of souls
i weave sweet life with death
and spirits bloom and bend
from the souls that i do tend

i am a gardener of souls
i walk through grasses of joy
and when i grow old
as my plants have foretold

ill lay embroiled with the soil
as my learnings they uncoil

you see i am a gardener of life
i invest in love and light
my food i eat is laughter
my air i breathe is delight.

i am a gardener of souls
and what i sow i reap
you see-i listened to a melody
from trees who only teach.

i am a gardener of souls
and i rake the leaves
and they bleed secrets
that nobody would believe.

but i’ve seen what ive seen
and i know what i know
no rain no flowers
no pain no powers
that’s how this story goes

and those up in their towers
the gardens of cowards
the fall
is far

My first poem on here!
