This is where the road ends
Butterflies and roses flee
Falling from the cold, velvet pavement
Where snow angels lie in wait for bodies.
Ribbons plunge from open turrets,
Streaming their silken red liquid
Singing hymns of death for weeping ears.
Fields of static, crying planet
Blazing moonlight, shadows of iron
The whispering cadence of marching, marching.
Slits of grey - Matters of angels
Diving patriarchs fluttering faster
With shreds of madness off glittering wings.
Tales are spinning, growing, screaming
The rose is crushed, petals decayed,
Calling a bird back from its overdue death.
An eclipse of castle, the prison revealed
Hands are yearning, frozen with pleas.
Sparkling jewels slip from the teeth,
Waves crash against wave, pound over rock
Splitting and Sculpting and Raising and Howling
Mind over matter... Butterflies soar
Melting white angels,
Catching the residue
This is where the road ends.
I wrote this a while ago, like half a year or so, and so far it's one of my deeper poems. So deep, in fact, that I have no idea as to what it means. My subconscious makes no sense to me. Trevor told me his idea as to what it means, and it made sense. He broke it down for me and everything :) I still have the facebook message haha I'm so stupid and creepy. Anyways. The fairytale/dark romance/religious stuff I didn't even catch on to until someone pointed them out to me. Now all I can envision when I read it is white angels with soot and blood covering them. I think I'm messed up a bit in the head though so it's okay.
and then you die :)

New Inspiration
My new Book, of which I bought Saturday - one of the best days EVER spent with Trevor, music and bookstores that are faker Powell's... Needless to say, I love it. I'm going to say it anyways.
I love it. And it's TINY!!!! I saw it sitting there and I knew instantly that I had to have it. I did wait for the allotted half hour, just to make sure that I really really wanted it.
I did. Badly.

The Damaged
Towards the end
The eye will fall upon us
And we will be in the calm
A breeze will blow
Replacing the jagged wind
And howling tempest.
Towards the end
Our eyes won't tear from the defeat
A lachrymal silence will sooth the dirt beneath my hand
And relinquish one drop shed from relief.
Towards the end
Oxygen will be enough to get us through the conclusion
I won't need to feel
And my heart will beat
Stronger than the flutter it is.
Towards the end
I can close my eyes without nightmares
A hand will brush the mud from my face
Soft as a god's
Soothing my brow
Sleep... Sleep
I'll count the strokes
And they'll be enough
Towards the end
No words will be there
Unutterable, faded serenity will blanket the field
Calming the blood and fear
Towards the end
All light will give out
Leaving us in the soft darkness
Blackness that is our surrender, my compliance
Towards the end
Our achievement will be the shrinking of the universe
Centering upon our souls
Our battered armour
Nothing else to think about
Nothing else at all
The end will come
The culmination before the nothingness
Tranquility in abandonment
Perfection in us,
The damaged.
GURPing it up
GURPS (Generic Universal RolePlaying System) is the best thing ever.
Way better than D&D in my opinion.
I like doing the unexpected and shaking things up.
Even though I almost die every time.
And that's my blurb on it :)

Subatomic
Here I am
Raising my tiny fists
Tiny fingers
A tiny lifeboat on the sea
The torpedoes start to burn
Whistling and screaming
They cover up the sobs
Little sobs
Blue and green flash
Rain makes rivers and men cry
Buckling to the knees
Snapped on the ground
Pain breaks the finest china
Behind the door is no guarantee
Salt so light the eddies can brush it away
Wash it away
Just hold onto the cloth
The shredded fibers cling
No white flag for you
This is my surrender
There's no more candles
And the darkness hurts
I can't go on without a guide
I'm so small
I'm too small.
