How Bright You Shine
12:59
|

My last breath, spent on crying words
Tethered to tears slaloming down my pained face
And I don’t want anymore part of this
This is crying out loud “this is where I belong”
Shaking with my truth, “I will always love you”
How bright you shine
Reaching the furthest corners of the universe
With your ardent light
And I don’t know where I want to be
But I know is that I need you
The love i have to give will not die with me
These words ring true,
Burning within me
These words ring true,
“I will always love you”

An Ardent Light

Anxiety looms over the foundation of my skull-sized home
Lingering, it haunts me like a spell of impending death
I will take your hand and follow you into the dark
With you I am safe: wrapped in the embrace of an ardent light
I have seen you and I, and with you I am happy
As long as I am with you when this ends, I will be ok
The noise that rots away in my mind will cease to grow one day
Until the soil of this earth tastes my mortal shell, I will live with joy all the days of my life
With you I am safe
Joy will follow me all the days of my life
I no longer need to be afraid

Spiders crawl on you
On your shoes, and on me
They spin their webs upon piano keys
And so irresistibly, I teem
For you, I could write one thousand symphonies
As I watch you be carried off to sleep by some lonely ghost
I ask myself,
“How can I be as happy?”
Starved for language and affection,
My spirit is derelict and pines for salvation
I celebrate myself, and sing myself
For although I am a broken person
I can find newness and joy in every day of my life
I am scared of looking my inner child in the eyes and telling them,
“I love you and it wasn’t your fault.”

Your Sweetness
11:49
|
|||
Sweet, melancholic, pink catharsis
I love you just the way you are
We are machines
Traversing our flesh and blood,
Bone and dreams, through generations
Of starspun bodily trauma
That does not know the bounds
Of any earthly love
You are the sound
Of lips caressing
And arms holding warm bodies
And every time I hear that sound
My spirit blossoms
So irresistibly
My cold heart pines for your ardent sweetness
This may be my last breath
But I want you to know
That you made it all worthwhile
