Fall gathering

Like the season shapes me,

I too, shed old skin.

.

Empty my mind,

From the poor state it’s in.

.

Cling to the moments,

That nourish my heart.

.

I’m saving up memories,

Soon winter will start.

Spark

I think you're a lot of fun,

Radiant, like the morning Sun.

Sometimes, you make my day,

Just when I want to throw it all away.

I’ll pop right in to say hello,

You always make me laugh you know.

And just like that, my skies seem brighter.

And the weight i carry feels much lighter.

Though both of us hide, comfortably away,

In the darkness, where we like to play.

I think we could hold hands, without a care.

There's a pop, in your flirtatious glare

The dark is where the fun is had,

We’re mostly good, but sometimes bad.

We don’t need a flashlight, we got light source.

It lives inside us all of course.

It's yours I really need tonight.

To illuminate what doesn't feel right.

So jumpstart my broken heart.

Re-electrified by your bright spark.

Here’s to the zeros😉

Obligatory post,

So I can play.

-

Love all you losers,

Take me away.

-

Help me forget,

And blow off some steam.

-

Various weirdos,

But on the same team.

-

This place is our witness,

And playground of sorts.

-

Let out the voltage,

We’re all such good sports.

Mocking birds 🤖

The mocking bird,

Atop looking down,

-

Eyes always scanning,

In search of a clown.

-

Oh, don’t you worry,

He’s got a keen eye.

-

But you should shudder,

As he starts to fly.

-

Don’t fall for his song,

He wants to steal yours.

-

Pecking holes til he’s got you,

Down on all fours.

Spinster

They said hello.

You heard goodbye.

-

They said good job,

You heard a lie.

-

They cheer you on,

You think they set traps

-

They offer friendship,

Mind starts running laps.

-

Oh how you spin,

Gold into straw.

-

Spinster of all,

You just never saw.

Lucifer knocked at my door.

Bad boys know the way to heaven.

Fuck fake love, Gimmie hate.

Make me feel something

The hurt that i feel,

When the curtain falls.

.

I’m the lead female,

A siren that calls.

.

Oh but the hero,

So handsome and tall.

.

He was just laughing,

Didn’t see me at all.

.

A temptor a knight,

King or fine sir.

.

She’s just a peasant

Don’t u love her.

Lie to me

I will not preform

My scars for you.

.

I will not oblige,

Cause u just asked me to.

-

I watched in wonder

As our shadows dance.

.

As u passed me by,

Must be circumstance.

.

Soften the blow,

Tell pretty lies .

-

Make me forget,

The sound of my cries .

Silly rabbit

I’m staying inside,

For the sake of my mind.

.

Too many carrots,

For rabbits to find.

.

Maybe im starving ,

So the bait looks so tasty.

.

But I’d rather be hungry,

Then do something hasty.

.

Into my den,

I try not to peek.

.

Oh silly rabbit,

Why you so weak?

I pay

Orchestrated spiral,

Manufactured fear.

Conspiratorial heartbreak,

Nothing to hold here.

Momentary lift up,

The floor begins to shake.

Salivating monsters,

Waiting for my break.

Old familiar chaos,

Fills the void they made.

Undeserved attack

I’m the one that paid.

Am I good?

I’m taken aback,

this alien feeling.

I don’t think I know it,

It might have me reeling.

I’m used to the pain,

confusion and ache.

What I woke up with,

its just a mistake.

I scoff at the notion

No way that it could.

Is this for real?

Am I freaking good?

My circus

I enter new territory,

Cautious at first.

.

I’ve done this before,

Some places are cursed.

.

I poke with my stick,

Shallow of breath.

.

My silly mind wonders,

“ am I marching to death.

-

“Goodness “ I whisper,

“have I gone insane.”

.

Life in a circus,

Can mess with the brain.🤪

The fog

I’m used to the fog,

In the valley of masks.

I grew accustomed to the haze.

Momentary clearing kept me sunned.

But it seems thick now.

Stealing my air.

I struggle to reach high ground.

So I may breathe freely.

Under the thumb of none.

Disordered

Thrust into the throes of my unkempt mind once more.

Manufactured rumination.

Nudged in every direction….

Free to decide.

.

I see the structure,

The coordination of the chaos…..

Pre disordered to rebel.

Yet I can’t quite break loose.

Call out my name

I’m on my knees,

Eyes up towards you.

I’m a bad girl,

But I can be good too.

I sometimes get cranky,

Please pacify me.

The boss or the student,

Don’t classify me.

Come to my bedroom,

We can play a fun game.

I’ll teach you the rules,

Now call out my name.

I say your name

I fantasize about you,

It’s gotten quite hot.

.

You circle my space,

What’s my name, I forgot.

.

I reach out to touch you,

Electricity zaps me.

.

I build up my courage,

Your energy slaps me.

.

Alone with this ache,

I’ll hafta make do.

.

But as I finish,

I call out to you.

Oasis

I might have found ,

a little space,

Where angels play ,

and demons pace.

.

All are welcome,

we don’t mind.

Misfits come here ,

to unwind.

.

We pout a bit,

we laugh a lot.

This is now ,

my resting spot.

Might be crazy

The constant query i ask my own mind.

Have i finally lost it, never to find?

.

Am I just crazy, or maybe too sane .

An offensive move , so I don’t feel the pain?

.

I guess if I’m crazy, I wouldn’t know it.

But everyone else could see that I show it.
