Sweetness 4 You
the fates can't let us collide
you see
I'm cursed
my days filled with anxiety
but your voice
god, your voice
it lingers in the marrow of my mind
like a prayer never answered
like worship turned wound
an altar trembling in your shadow
i know it's hard for you now
so collaps into me
drown me sweetly
steep into my very being
my body and soul is all yours
not even the holy dare to enter
untouched even by the divine
do you think
"would their eyes forget me
if i buried myself beneath the waves?"
I know
you do
you wear it like skin
but my love, your fate is a prophecy
they would go blind
before they ever looked away
they would die for you
bleed for you
the heavens would fight
for an eternity
to claim your darkness
and to breathe YOUR NAME once
though the gods themselves choke on it
I miss you every day. But today, it feels like everything I do is just here to remind me I am living without you.
so soft it hurts
“I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.”
— Og Mandino
Blacklit Sky
Iam ridiculously jealous at the moments
you give to her instead of me
and that
your hand will never reach mine
except through
my mind
my shadow and yours
collide
not by chance
but by some forgotten vow
etched in stardust
and sealed in sleep
our eyes look up the same sky
over and over again
untill the orbs meet
for the first time
as if the heavens are tired
of holding our longing
my velvet fire embers
and your hues of ocean
dancing across the sky
that never noticed
between the void
and the constellations
above the world
entwined
for a lifetime
2 April, 1937 Letters to Véra by Vladimir Nabokov
I want to lose myself in your love
make you my home again.
But your happiness doesn't belong to me
it is she that makes you bleed
and I watch without being seen.
