The wind vanishedA Poem by Count HumilusSilence of meWe broke the middle ground because we wanted to reach the stars We slept through days of reality to stay naïve Scared of outcomes I can not control Being my worst Flipping my thoughts Catalyst to her actions Her looks It hurt so bad to look into her eyes and see the love was not there anymore Another beautiful short lived star, Imploding in the very midst of my heart She misses smiles and being held close in the morning I miss miles I detest reconciliations I made a bed of past mishaps Sleep deeply I will It always cycles back to sleep I slept all day yesterday I left this world as easy as it is to do permanently I can’t break this spell for now Ivy tangles my mind A self fulfilling prophecy I hate her I think I love her I know I’m over what this is going to be I’m over what this was If I could take what makes me happy and vanish, Would I? A hammock of serenity An intrusion of juxtaposition I blame myself She tainted the picture before it was dry Scratched at it’s details I gave the benefit of the doubt as my heart showed pity I left out my logic for love and am now growing up knee deep in left overs Indian giving presents Low blows Eyes low Kiwi comes to mind End up like Shelter? End up like Kessler? End up happy? Maybe I’ll find in the few seconds of moments serenitys clarity Happy doesn’t exist thinks I Gratification’s beaten path leads me playing house For once maybe I’ll be the crazy one I think I should become illusive and vague She is not interested in open mouth kisses and silver linings Ha! I am a joke. Want what I want. Do what I do. Hurt who I hurt Want what I can’t have. © 2009 Count Humilus |
