Fingertips Tracing The Moonlight

Fingertips
Tracing the moonlight.
Whisper softly.
  
Imagine
A world
Away from here.
Escape from this,
From you.
     
  
Your words so sweet
Leave a bitter taste.
Thoughts of bliss
Bring only tears.
  
There is no love
No happy ending.
Heartbreak
Is all that will come to you.
  
Again and again
You shatter
You break.
  
I am responsible.
I’m to blame.
I hurt you
Again and again.
  
Each of your tears
Makes me hurt more.
Empathy.
Responsibility.
Reminding me I failed.
  
I can’t protect you.
I failed to do so.
All I do is cause you pain,
Suffering,
Tears.
  
I can’t believe you.
It would break me.
It hurts me now.
  
Each doubt
Brings me closer
To all the tears
I never shed.
  
You can’t be right.
You mustn’t love me.
I won’t  break down,
Won ‘t believe.
  
Nobody believes you.
You’re so innocent.
You’ll learn.
  
I can’t love you.
Never.
Don’t cry. Forget.
  
Learn.
You will learn.
Cliché. fairytale. Happily ever after.
They don’t exist.
What you want can’t be.
  
You’ll slowly be corrupted.
Learn about the world.
Your innocence
Will fade away.
  
The scars from tears
Will remain,
When innocence is lost.
Scars I made.
  
I want to escape
To a place where your tears
Give me no pain.
But your suffering
Brings me back.
  
Cold-hearted, soulless
I return.
  
Fingertips tracing the moonlight.
Imagine.
Whisper softly
“Your tears give me no pain”

Choices

I want to get to know you.
I want us to be close.
I’m happy when I’m with you;
I think that you are too.
  
I miss the time we spent,
Like no one else was there.
Do you know what I meant?
I hope you know I care.
  
Last time we were together,
You acted differently.
Do you still feel the way you did?
Do you want to be with me?
  
Was I acting different too?
I know I must have been.
I never want to lose you.
Does that mean we cannot be?
  
I know I really like you,
As more than just a friend.
But if we get together,
Will our friendship end?
   
What happens if our friendship
Is ruined by this test?
I don’t want us to lose this.
I don’t know what is best.

Entwined Eternally

Light and darkness,
Black and blue,
Sun and Moon;
Forever entwined in an eternal dance.
  
Bring life to the world,
Bring light to the night.
Each among the stars;
Burning, glowing, waxing, waning.
   
Forever connected,
Never touching.
Barely ever crossing paths,
But following one another faithfully.
   
Each one circling.
Night would be dark,
If they lost their trust.
An unbreakable bond ties them,
  
Shown bringing light to the world.

The path to Light

Shadows fall.
Like broken glass on sand,
They cut, but are worn away.
 
One place, one moment,
Where all light is gone,
Radiance is missing.
 
Shadows are cast,
Like the reflection of sun’s rays.
A mirror or truth.
   
Graceful despair.
What imitates truth is only,
Persuasive lies. 
 
Surrounded by light,
An island of misery,
Of desolation and hopelessness.
  
The shadow finds all.
None can run forever,
None can escape from it.
  
Misery is the path to joy,
Sin to redemption.
Shadow shall lead to all light.

[Thanks to Jessie for the title]

Beautiful, Frustrating, Imperfections.

Each line,
A new beginning.
Each stroke,
A step of my journey.
 
Perfection,
My aim.
Impossible.
 
Flaws emerging;
Beautiful,
Frustrating.
 
Pen and paper,
Flawed,
Scarred.
 
My imagination,
My mind,
My soul.
 
On parchment,
All wrong,
Disintegrated.
 
Structuring,
Mapping out,
My journey.
 
Destination,
Unknown.
