Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my daily poetry blog. The following poems are improvised based on my day, general reflections, or by just allowing my mind to cruise in neutral without a filter. I have been working on this for something around two years now and have amassed a lot of words. You can either go through them page by page, or check out the "Hall of Better Poems" option in the right column. Please feel free to comment on what you like or dislike, and also subscribe below if you like this sort of thing. Thanks!

(typically I will write down my ideas on paper throughout the day and I may not get in front of a computer to transfer it. So I then dump a few days worth of poems at once.)

pillow talk

I keep hoping that I will suffocate myself
In the evening while I'm sleeping
While the weight of my body presses stomach to bed
The weight of my brain pressing pillow to head
For this I used to worry
Some, fleeting fear
Sudden waking, gasping, coughing
Still half asleep
Fighting to breathe
Until the romance of it conquered me
Rendering rationality irrelevant
Just stop my breath and leave this place
Gently in the night
In absence of live in quests
No one would notice the passing
If executed properly
Even I would not notice
