Rely on me
T Miah Aug 30
Couldn’t collide
I sensed your sunken eyes, your heavy breath and your tensed neck.  
I remember when we had met.  

Her sweat ran down your seven layers of skin, since some of them got cut in.  
I was a giant pillar, sleek and polished.  
Built from the dust and sand you saved  
For someone to lean on.
Her love was more than a pillar you used to adore.  
Her love came from aside and above. In the air,  
even sensed by the spirit of a young dove.  
You didn’t want to collide.  
But her pillar said, “let me decide”

I can´t run
T Miah Aug 30
In our fights we ignite our
strength.
Your clenched jaw and furrowed brow
Do I run,
Fear in my feet.
I can't ,
I can't ,
I know, we both keep our vows.
We move in our own wavelength.
When my mouth opens we travel from north to south.
I testify,
this wildfire was mine to rinse,
I swallowed the loud sizzling eversince
My body was yours to shield.
Your body was mine to heal.
With me, you water your minefield.
You monitor your moves.
,never destruct a piece
I wouldn't approve.
I can't,
in love with our dynamic
I can't
In love with our supreme
I lost,
Love so unbendable we were metallic.
My guard fell,
Which card to play,
we both could tell.
If we burn us to the ground with love and grace.
We'd store our ashes in the most beautiful place.
I am in a daze
as I carry your ashes
to season the sea with your alluring philosophy.
You're the immortal in me.
Bringing heavens to me with your touch and ecstasy.
Darling I sense your vision,
we both can see
The way we crashed so restfully

Proximity
T Miah Aug 30
As we travel through our mind
How much of our world have
we already defined?
Leave some lands a mystery
Protection
from the destruction of mankind.
Our eyes adapt to the territory
The territory
of our sweetest childhood stories
Proximity ,

our world already designed
by our peers
Who were perhaps color-blind
They couldn't see the shades as well
The different skies and tastes and smells
Misunderstood life as a nutshell
Its in our nature
we're afraid to find
A land beyond our barriers
My eyes meet
yours
beyond these lines
For this proximity I do not sign
Your grass fields are not the same as my mines
My world I have defined
History,
Like electricity the course I see
is something else than what
it used to be.
Thunderstorms and high tide seas
I want to feel all the intensity
How much of my world have I
tried to decline
Have I waned upon , to become
a less than a dime
Less than a grain
Not planted because of
shame

Leave my land a mystery?
It's protection
from mankind
But wealth can't be build upon a ground
that's dry
And prisons can't be build without affairs, the least amount of air
Protection
What about my longchanted prayer?
Allow your layers to unfold
Raise your flag
be brave
be bold !
Within you is a grain worth of
gold
Intervention
Lend an ear to my preach!
Victory can only find
what she can reach

Confide
T Miah Aug 30
Confide in me

I wanna take your pain
I wanna soak your in
your emotions
If you rage if you vexate
Light a fire before your
explosion
Allow me to be soft spoken
Allow me to put you in
motion
Release into devotion
With gentle whispers I settle you
deep
With gentle breaths I soothe you
in a warm sleep
I wanna take your pain
Cease the fire that your holdin
I wanna water your mind
In this realm I'll be roaming
My presence always there
Don't hesitate to share
your reflections
your tension
We will dance in the knowing
Hold me tight and melt into
my eyes
Your breath like the breeze of
the night
Wake up to a new morning  
Overflow me with all your
commotion
I'll turn It into the clearest
ocean
Hold me tight and land all
the mourning in your chest
on mine
Allow me to turn this pain
into light
Confide in me

Naked
T Miah Aug 30
I want to fall asleep
A heavy blanket carrying my agony
The melatonin in my blood stream,
My skin aching for the heat of steam.
How freeing it must be, my weight sinking in a
vague daydream. A place safe to scream.

I want my body to
dissolve. No hands involved.
All alone
Perhaps there are more who sleep, in the comfort
of their body. Limbs heavy and weak.  
We never met ,yet share
the same bed.
Maybe my scream leaps, and I want you feel.
Like silk stretched over steel
Your skin was an easy barrier to peal

And even with closed eyes we
remain cautious
We share the same conscious
Are supposed to have a connection? When you look in
my black eyes all you see is
a reflection.
I want to fall asleep
conceal all trouble my mind keeps

And when my eyes are closed I am finally seen.
Revealed and naked it feels surreal.

The fall
T Miah Aug 30
A friend once told me
I know you want to appear strong
I questioned his choice of words
To appear
As if Iam hiding my tears
All my life I am part of a play
Playing roles depending on the
day
As my role changes I become
a singer
Be attentive to my song
I often rhyme about the desire
to belong
To love yourself after your
fall
not in substances or alcohol,
shrinking walls or six missed calls
To love in
the acceptance of remorse
Ask forgiveness behind
closed doors
To fall beyond your original course
Your community, family or house
Perhaps it's time for a
divorce
To encounter a class beyond
Something better, cleaner, free'er
When to belong was a
wish denied
Don't let your mind be occupied
Love yourself in your
fall
Have grace and cheer
Someone has to lift you up my dear
You're not defined you're a moving
force
With strength and momentum
This change is your new anthem
Explore the whole spectrum
Strength is being fearless of the
worst
You played different roles
You bounce back with the love in
your core
It doesn't matter what life shows
Our attitude we have in control
When you are strong
Also appear like
you're still young
As if a lot has to be done
To love the child within
isn't a job for an anyone

Deception
T Miah Aug 30
Lingering on the echo of my voice and pages written.
Give me a force, or was it all for nothing.
When all are aware,
of the chillness of my air.
In the end , no soul is there.
Would you cherish the moments, indulge in our emotion. Laugh till our voices crack.
Do you feel my presence?
Listen to every scentence.
I these moments we share,
I have never been there.

No an endless cry in space.
Life ,it's a video game.
I believed ,you and me were the same.
They say I have the right to leave.
But don't you dare deceive, indeed my mind can see.
What is a right
without responsibility?
It's a choice , something I should enjoy.
Don't you dare deceive,
Me into something that's temporary.
I ache to leave,
but who is safe without their gear.
In need to carry, without it I won't survive.
Cry into an empty space,
my suitcase left behind.
No load to grasp to ,
we cut our own leg just to hold it.
Anything
Anything
Alone , the moment tastes sour,
then why does it feel like,
I regain power.
Don't you dare deceive ,
In distance lies nothing but resistance.
I have never been there ,
I declare ,
the only opponent is my skin and hair.

Is the strongest form of love presence?
Here , always an ear and eye to take care.
Don't tell me lies ,
If your love has no sacrifice.

When you're alone, do you
crave the pain of the unknown.
Do you find peace in your deception.
Do you mark yourself
just to feel a sense of direction.
Tell me ,
Do you master the craft, without it burning your past?
Do you deceive me ?
When you tell me in the unknown, we find responsibility.
Honey,
How far go my abilities.

Dissolve
T Miah Aug 30
I want to let go.
The rules ,restraints and walls made of
stone.
What about a drink let´s dissolve in the foam.
Chanting all the weight into a
fleeting echo
How foolish we must be. To be atonished by
uncertainty.
Lend an ear to the melody
All it takes is a single toast or a pulse
to be floored by life´s gravity

And even then, with my bones so sore
I want to be adored.
Through all the fragil bruises once ignored
Through our temper we remain so tender
Let go , Iam not embarrassed  Iam cherished
What about a drink what a privilige it is to
sink
To explore every extent
to try and comprehend.


I want to let go. The pressure of perfection
Dissolve in the foam
Transition Into the woman I want to be
No tension
A horizon in which I can roam and feel the
breeze
Like a feather to follow
What´s a pursuit without the unease of the
unknown

Who are you
T Miah Aug 30
Who
celebrates the beauty of life
is he who
hesitates to study what's inside.
Oh open your ears
the bells ringing and the
pure singing.
Swinging on the roads of Castellano.
A glass of white champagne while
dancing in the rain.
My eyes see you spinning and crawling
on a plateau
Laughter and coughing to
escape
the shivers of the pain and agony
restrained

Oh he who's in love with life
I'll watch over you, aware of the deeper
sign
I want you to love I want you to thrive
Don't forget to fear
The sequel of the afterlife.
Most definitely,
Iam not one to hold, my appearance as thin as air
for you a mystery to
unfold.
A presence always there an
atmosphere who repairs.

When he's waltering in the rain
high on the taste of champagne,
I'll be the breeze that flows over you
as a hurricane
Evoke the hot blood of your
mother in your veins.
Revealing your shame no fear
for disgrace
Cleaning the stains
leaving you ready for Gods embrace

A glass to hold, no raindrops to sip from.
A medicine as plain as milk.
My skin as soft as silk my love all spilled

Oh he in love with life.
Do you recognise,
Iam not a fairy tale
Your loving lie who brings peace to mind.

I want you to feel the divine
I see you crawling on a plateau.
From my balcony, I pray, for a fair battle
Don't be the like a serpent
Don't eat from the apple.
Oh honey let me be your second mind.
The presence behind your eyes.
Shed your skin,
your awareness polished and refined.
When celebrating the light,
you shatter the glass,
And breakthrough your domain.
With me and the divine in your mind.
You remember your name.
Who are you
48 · Aug 30
You´re me
T Miah Aug 30
I have an eye for all the beauty
somewhere outside
far from my reach ,
A beauty that hides

I have an eye for all the potential
and all the promises
All the amazing things you
could
do
Tied in a neverending
loop
I have an eye for the shape
of your shadow
how beautifully the clothes
could
fall over your body
The ways you move accordingly
A blessing for the eye to see
I have an eye for your elegance
Then i notice all the missing
elements
Everything you
could
do
is not evident
I can't see the proverty in you
But all that you could be
I wish that it was me
But for you
I refuse to be
To be
In a state of constant
need
Why you have such conceit
Why can you not take the lead
Since my eyes aren't your reality
Let me be
Let me be
All the beauty

White dress
T Miah Aug 30
Denial and death,
They act like a burden for my body, she is the one who cares.
Without any of them, does one stay sane?
But they're not a light source flowing through my veins.
They are slices of me with different names.

If you see me clothed in my white dress and high heels.
Tell me beloved,
Do your eyes still capture the needle and thread it took to sew.
I'll never let you see
The poker cards, roses , shooting stars, filthy art, perfumes and raspberries, the cherries in my heart. The sweet and sour flavour of my charm.

If you want to call me your cheré,
Cut me a slice of that what lives behind your eyes.
Followed with the cries that pour from your sky.  
Continued with the words of the wise you collect in your mind.
Finished with the fragrance of your blood.
I'd cherish every chapter,
I won't rewrite your chart.
In my existence, you'll find nothing but acceptance.

If you see me standing in a white dress covered with mud.
Do your eyes still capture the smile on my face?
Or would you stress, blind to your own mess.
When you see me at night, afraid of the emotion I hide.
You'll find me clothed in my skin,
a bouquet beside me.
While I cut the thorns of my roses,
The blood in your veins travels with the speed of light.
We throw away the needle and thread.
You see a cheerful begin, embracing the sight.
You confirm, it's only God
who can cut us in a way that we die

Sweat
T Miah Aug 30
I wish to make you
sweat,
not from desire, yet from our heat
Your skin must be wet, your breath salty and sweet
breathing on the beat of my speech.
So don't bother to
comment,
since we were cut from the same cloth
Don't take off your garments,
I would beat you in
that department
No room for detachment in this
apartment
Seven layers of your skin hovering in my scent.
Drenched in cold sweat.
Like raindrops
on a surface of glass. This storm too
shall pass.
Tension in the air,
as you drop your chains.
A barrier you tried so hard to maintain, slipping through your
fingers and chest.
A treat on a forbidden quest,
I wish to make you surrender, a threat so tender

Medicine
T Miah Aug 30
Your voice sounds like
headache to the most
To your poison
Iam addicted
it's strange
I know
To this I'd like to overdose
I'll be left as your haunting ghost.
Opportunity after opportunity
remind me of your cruelty
Oh to have this much energy
Aren't you what I aspire to be
It's strange I know,
To be mesmerised by your
ugly note
Oh convince me more and
more of this message you wrote
Never something I can't bear
Therefore I'll lend you an ear
For, I chose
what I want to hear

Though,
It's your mind
shedding tears
With grace Iam honoured
To be your living fear

To your poison Iam addicted
It's strange
I know
Drag me through dirt this moment
is your sacrifice
Now Iam an opponent who robs
your price
I won't dwell I won't yell
Unlike you
Won't serve my thoughts
on a silver plate
In my silence you shall
suffocate.

One day you'll overdose
on your own
Frightened by your own tone
Iam honoured my dear
to embody this medicine
you steered.

I fear you see
T Miah Aug 30
I hate the way you see me
It's not the calmness I
embody
She's someone I like to deny
Someone who walks away
without saying bye
She's full of rage and silent cries
I hate it when you see me
Not when in laughter , joy and glee
But when Iam on the edge between
my want and need
All I need is my child and you to meet
All I want is to fade away in a blissful breeze
I hate it why you see me
the anger in my chest like a boiling bree
The desolation in my eyes and
my senses you read.
The nights I went to bed and didn't eat
All you see is an ugly truth
I agree
I often lie
No real reason but I am afraid to share my shine
You took it away before I knew what was wrong and right.
Beware not to put a label on a child.
When in madness I sound like a boiling water cooker.
Even if we tried to sit down with a cup of tea
You wouldn't add sugar, and our talks will taste bitter
I hate it that you see me
Not what your eyes capture but what your mind gathers
I can't complain to be seen better
If Iam not willing to climb that ladder
In full honesty,
your eyes don't matter

Core ( unedited)
T Miah Aug 30
From within my core
a poem so pure
I promise the ordinary life won't feel so
genuine anymore
I perceive a burden weighing you down to the floor
A pedestal of promises from behind empty doors
All the pain you endure
for a life which isn't even yours
Fearing the consequences of all your expenses
Living in a dense fog,
alarming all your senses like a chained up
dog
Perhaps it's time to change your
lenses
This ordinary life robbing you from your
myths and lores
Bound to an infinite amount of chores

I know this was the
norm
ever since you were born
But be attentive to your core
Does it accept this fate?
Your need to be
secure, to survive
could never
compensate
your desire for laughter and
delight.

Beyond us
T Miah Aug 30
Words are not enough to amplify
the energy flowing through us when
we ignite.
When in the past we gazed at what's
Inside
to forge ourselves to become who God writes

Whereas in the present we live in light
When we meet we collide Iam the sun behind your moon when it's night
you shine.
Poetry is not enough to describe the resonance of our voices reciting the words of God when we align.
A frequency so divine when the clock rings
you awake to a new design.

Never stultified , we are two quantum's leaping into each other discovering
worlds only our eyes and capture.
Never tired foreas we embrace every
form of energy our beings evoke in one another.
Catching the hot stinging stars in our sky they fade in our sun.
We radiate
our ravishing devotion.
Crashing into me like a wave who belongs to his ocean.

I return you into raw a form the eyes your mother met when you were born.
We Exel beyond what man made us believe about the love you could find.

We reveal our shame without disgrace
we aquiver our fears our emotion.
At night we're two souls next to each other
Boundless and Immortal ready to conquer.

In your eyes I find the universe that belongs to mine.
A sacred place in which we exchange our minds.
Our love is the special kind.
Language is doesn't define how deep we can dive. There is no barrier no place to hide.
Both the warmth and the cold of the body's ingenious nature.
I stir you up arouse every part.
I enchant you my warmth
the softness of my skin
  transfers to your mind.
You feel sublime you're serene
As deep as the ocean we skinny dip in our subconscious.

There is nothing
Nothing
beyond us

Approve
T Miah Aug 30
How draining it must be
This constant game of hide and seek
To explain my entity for a soul so plain
An exhausting image so pointless to obtain

Is all you do bend, into someone
easier to comprehend
What a release, to leave without an adieu
Achieve without a ceiling
Pursue without a queue
To approve with all the noise removed


Without the weight to be read
Its enough to
be

In the daylight
T Miah Aug 30
As I'd grown aware too fast
I knew that love didn't last
As I'd craved to be recognised
I'd grown aware that my cover didn't matter.
The words In me made them shatter.
For I gave up on those desires.
The love , compliments and showers of admirers.
I used to know them and wish what
It was like
To be seen by so many
in that daylight.

For I understood none of it was real
The most occupied souls believe that world is
the ideal
As I'd grown aware too fast.
I knew my love for them wouldnt last
If your reputation depended on their glasses
I would never see the lens of the assasisin
For that part of your mind never existed, what shot do you aim for
when you're focussed on the masses
I am not one to chase ,
aim for someone else
I'll retreat , in that case, no time to dwell
Therefore
I met myself
With beauty and manners caused as well

Though I thought I
wondered what it was like
To be seen by so many in that daylight
Through the lens of their iris
not
through the flashlight
And when  I met myself
In the essence of my being lingered a strong smell
As I grew in my features, movements and tone.
The more and more my world turned
alone
For my mind wasn't aware
Of they eyes that might stare
As I've grown too aware ,
The echoes about my eyes or beauty
None of it cared
I thought I wondered what it was like ,
To be seen in that daylight

The wise knew the sun shouldn't be  shining too bright,
right infront of ones blind eye.
Memories stored
ready to unwind
Iam ready to grow into a woman
Embrace every vessel and bone
As I am aware
that your mind is a prison to what you wished you
owned

Black mirror
T Miah Sep 23
Am I part of something Iam
not?
I resurface, the thought lost
I feel a shiver of unease yet
a gentle breeze
I once held such a gracious
memory

Let me decompose in the moss
Tangled in branches ,they’re swallowing my limbs
as if am
suspended
Forevermore the soil has been laid
I have lingered here for a decade

Refusing to decay I have been
displaced
Resurfacing in a lake
like a black
mirror
Suddenly the outline of the sky
appears a lot clearer

An abyss disguised as water
Ripples of ink trail from
my body as I turn smaller
and smaller
My eye must expand since
this lake tends to have no
end

No objects or internet
All I sense is my presence and
cold sweat
Am I part of something Iam not ?
Or have I recalled a lost
thought

Present
T Miah Aug 30
I declare ,
Every grain of my mind
I have
spared.
The dust of my ancestors
ready to be repaired
Does time define
the worth
of what you have designed
If you asked me to end your bloodline
I politely decline.
How do you teach history,
If your words never held consistency
How do you call this history,
if in your stories held no victory
Only a fool has the audacity
to write history
without an opponent who
gifts him an injury.

Deeply cut
Who are you
Without an ally who gifts
you with a basket of lemons
A bitter taste
it changed you in a
different shape

I declare,
I gave you a grain of my mind,
If together we bound
Then why was my seed planted
where no river was found

Does time define the
Significance of what you've designed
Because only a fool writes history
in the past.
It you wanted your message to last

The present
is everything that you ask.
This moment,
  is the sand
  in which you plant your seed.
It's the ticket
  to the most lavish suite
Can you feel every heartbeat

Embracing the blessings given
by the unseen

— The End —
