poem

"Aquamarine"

Catch my soul sheen, it shines aquamarine.
Heat up the sea, turn to the color I ought to be
Burning away my anxiety. Time to be free.
Burnt on the edges, like it has to be.

I turn to emerald, that has a cost.
I neglected a dear friend, that’s a cost.
Tortured inside for years, that’s a lot.
Avoiding the truth, that’s the cause.
Diving into other worlds, that’s the gauze.
Hiding my feelings, that’s a loss.
Old ways to think, deserve to get tossed.

Old ways served no purpose, when I
Never looked up.
My eyes looked back and looked low, when I
Always felt stuck.
My mind was made up, no hope, when I
Knew I would die.
Convinced my heart ”no more”, when I
Wanted suicide.

I imagined a world without my love present.
Something I had hidden away, had forgotten.
I imagined the present world, without my friend in it.
They wanted me to fight, put my heart in it.

Now my eyes shine with celestial glint.
Astral projecting my signs far, no stint.
Playing hop-scotch, star to star, always commit.
Sliding across asteroid belts, can’t resist.
Leading the way to sol-center, sunlit.
Taurus and Aquarius close behind, full sprint.

We’re going to break the sky, rearrange the stars.
Tell new stories, new lessons, we have to go far.
Words are being diminished, fuck the par.
Stand on your words, even if it means new scars.
Our words mean everything, raise the bar.

We’re soaring back to Earth now.
Emerald souls burning with verdant fire.
We have new knowledge, new wisdom and the fire to use it.
Fighting the burning of words with righteous ire.

New ways serve my purpose, when I
Find a new question
My eyes seek justice and truth, when I
Find courage to speak
My mind was made up, all hope, when I
Knew I loved all
Convince my heart “Everything!” when I
Smile

Healed on the inside, like it wants to be
Absorb all the light. Time is back with me
Calm the sea, be the beautiful color I ought to be
Watch my soul sheen, it shines aquamarine.

 

hentai-free Energy for this first description but for the sanctity of leather bound books

Someone explain this to me

I've seen so much cringe in my life but I am not strong enough to click

Aww ty for taking the time to read it. I had a good rage cry when I wrote it all out and it felt like I was saying good bye for good so the catharsis was definitely there!

I know it's been almost a day since you replied sry lol. I tend to just throw my work out into the wind.

 

"A Prayer For The Asshole Who Killed Demetrius"

You cross my mind, just like every point in time
I recollect, you took my friend’s peace in time
I re-collect, the piece you tore from my peace that time
Was already broken, by eleven.
You tore a piece, I was fifteen

You took a life, for what?
Last words I remember
“You made this shit easy. Glad you in my class.”
“Demetrius you’re interrupting!”
“I was just saying thank you!”
Class clown, class laugh.
Shake my shoulder.
A real friend.
It was easy to smile
In the face of cold weather.
Early sunset
Wash away the happy day.
Early sunrise…

Break the news

Demetrius was the first shadow cast
Over my life, days started to tumble,
Write past.
Missing from the seat on the bus.
Missing from the seat in my class.
Missing a genuine laugh.
Missing a genuine smile.
Missing a helping hand.
Missing a grateful man.
Missing the reason
To not grab my anger and lash out.
Only to swing at a schizophrenic shadow
I know you’re one of many
Still many to go.
Still watching the shadow cast.
Still missing…

I hope you find the time. You know…
…the time you stole and threw away.
Never had a chance to see another rainy day.
Never had a chance to smile again.
Never had a chance to smoke a blunt and fade away.
Never got to see what could have been.
I hope this hurts.

Follow my lead, I know you’re observant.
You watched a young man steal the room.
Time and time again.
You watched him be something he wasn’t
Something you never were.
Pathetic creature, being jealous of a boy.
You killed a light and stomped out other’s.
You observed pain in countless eyes.
I hope you observe your own.

Follow my lead, I forgive you.
Forgive you.
Take your pain and find your way.
Better take yourself to God.
Or I’ll make your way.

Time to kick you out of my mind.
Pressing my emotions on paper.
Charging at the moon, channeling
Decades of the month of May.
Will never have to hear what you have to say
Sharpen my arms. I only have my pen.
This is for me and you, think about us.
I gored your shadow.
Raging Taurus.

Shadow is fading. I said my peace.
Sunset to sunrise, we both get to see another day.
Remember what you did.
Remember what you saw.
Remember that sunrise? When you took it all away?
I do.

You’re just a shade now. Reminder of sin.
Hope you found God. I know you heard this.
I cast my light on you. Your shadow’s thin.
Your mask comes off. Look where you are.
We’re in the quarry you killed him in.

Your self-worth is not tied to your successes and failures in video games.

I've had a long, addictive journey with video games and that was the conclusion to a lifetime of suffering inside.

it's still accurate

they are only showing up to look the part, whine about inane bullshit, and stand around for 10 minutes before napping in the cybertruck

I'll give it a shot but a damn shooter/moba mix just sounds like the potential for top 5 toxic player base of all time.

I work in produce at a grocery store and we often have people ask us to cut roots for one reason or another. My coworkers absolutely hate dealing with customers sometimes and I don't blame them.

I had a woman shove a yellow yam on my chest and demanded (I think?) in broken english/creole to cut the bad parts off. I guess my autism/tolerance levels were through the roof because I just went and did it for her for some reason. When I got back to her with the yam, she clicked her tongue at me in disappointment and began ranting about how I cut the soul of the yam too deep. She didn't even buy the damn thing lmao
