Letting Go – Poetry

The wind whispers implications and nudged me towards a hope

A hope of something whimsical but forgotten

When I left the tide ripped a hole in my memory

And altered something that was once magical

My recollection

And pushed me past lost

Something rare dangling in a breeze

Like the kite I flew with granny as a kid

I veered the unforgivable trying to balance its weight

Like words it was heavy and difficult

I tried to keep it (you) in my grasp

Till the whispers became vengeful

And forced me

To just

Let

Go

Away

I love when I find a treasure here on WP that challenges me to do what I love to do!

DO NOT RESUSCITATE – Poetry

Weights heavy like burdens
In search to erase a thing
A thing!
A terrible thing
No amount of love can resuscitate me
To a normal thing
This empty land mind has swallowed my ethos
They look at me as somewhat of a weirdo
With blood on my shirt and dirt in my nails
I have the stench of lonely only the dead can smell
No person place or thing
Can resurrect me
Normal
I want to will myself a reset
To erase all the regret
My silence cry rivers and my soul is damned
To something morbid and sadistic
And no song I sing can erase the thing
That screamed at me in a dream to wake
Corners turn curves
To shake awake every unhinged nerve
Scream then disappear
I’ve been hiding from the boogie man
Haunted by memories
I will forever be trapped
In this dream
And no amount of love can resuscitate me
