a trace of words from an unnamed (warning!)

This is not yaoi, but it's in the similar category of same-gender love. So I guess this was a better place to put it? These are actually old, old poems... but reading them reminds me again...

 

They are a little on the morbid and depressing (-_-;) side ^^; so I cover them in case people are easily grossed out by blood/guts etc. They do go in order, but it's okay if you read them out of order? o-o;

 

Also, }{blahblahblah }{ is the title for each section/poem ^^;

 

 

}{ It is familiar }{

 

Throw off the worn

Cast away the dying

Cut away the contaminated

 

The slick poison

The honey coated kiss

Backwards motion like something greater than

A single will can hold against

The cascading of pressure overwhelms

 

Would it fissure and crack

Blood seep through such a jagged line?

If I wet lips to this

Could it paint my dreams?

Could it color my release...

Would it give me the searing flames I wish so hard for...

 

If it only lit even the tiniest of a spark…

Wish I could grow it into the steady light

I want to hold close

A soul, mine, burn like moth wings in a flame

 

Could the tears I cry…

Fall to ashes, slip between fingers...

...shouldn't I know...

 

 

 

 

 

}{ hesi†a†ion }{

 

Two hands hang

Should one balance the other way

Does trust to a savior, to a lover

Is it the same?

 

And if the tilt falls another--

Does it drip the path of hate and anger?

Liquid that could rise on a string,

Lash, it cuts through, the sting should

be enjoyed, lathe with the tinge

Of twisted beauty in its very, own, motion.

 

The walking steps, give it a prance

No one will notice

Slip the misery to the joy.

No one will remember

Awkward, pull the strings

Do they dig in-- so tastefully

to break your ecstasy.

 

Say the yes's to,

lift it away, so breaths may come,

So these eyes may close

And so these tainted hands...

may rest.

 

 

 

 

}{ enj*ymen† }{

 

The bitter taste like iron,

Rise to the tongue, curl,

The edge we call affection

Could it be so unnatural

Doll of strings,

Made out of tears and glass...

 

Graceless, head from a gutter

The pieces of you are not

Fit to lay on this altar

Burn, may, wouldn't it burn

Too soiled, soiled like.

 

Like the set of nails,

Scrape, hurt, the fog you wish

Won't conceal the sounds

Of your shame revealing itself

The red that flushes you now

Will color the blank so...

beautifully.

 

No wonder, follow blindly

Couldn't be aware the

Line trailing behind

The pulse that asphyxiates

Is in oblivion, mindless you.

 

Grimly, show the entranced haze

Let the nail circle,

Addicted to the things that soon

Enter, such

There couldn't be any brighter--

the laugh of a dying you.

 

 

 

 

}{ remembers...side + }{

 

Bloodied nails will claw down the paper-thin wall

How much of the facade is torn away?

 

The click like a knife splitting through bone

Should tell you more than you already know.

Eyes closed, where we are...

I can tell the breathing of you

The you who's life I heard every night

Waiting for you to fall asleep.

 

The broken ring was a mistake, a lost accident:

But it's too late to turn around and ask for it again.

 

If I match this breath with you, would you wait

For me again? I won't have to put up the petty,

Pitiful mechanisms back into place.

Let the life flow from me and let it carry me

For the few minutes, I can rise from the memories.

Before they're covered again, hidden and again. Learn to breathe

through the inopportune ways you give me.

 

Maybe, if I mourn the loss of you, maybe, I can walk on, nothing but a memory,

of the hundreds left behind, of the some left behind,

of the few left behind...

 

Of the one, only remembered in traces.
