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.)

heart shaped space

The weight of this pressure as turned me.
Forced a change in me that none saw coming.
Willingness has shed it's utility.
Hope becomes disgust.
No longer is there a glimmer of trust behind my eyes.
A sort of diminished hatred lingers here.
Failing to even try making a disguise.

Where did I go?
Perhaps this memory is nothing more than the shadow of desire.
Things I whisper to myself to reassure the disappointment.
As the evening turn from black to powdered blue,
My thoughts of sick complacence stem from you.

Writhing tendrils searching for a home.
Eyes, in shaky desperation, land on nothing in particular.
These knuckles lost the ability to turn white,
Right about the tenth time the threat crossed your lips.
