I'm an idealist stuck in a realist's body

Weltschmerz

Today was the day I dreaded

The day the words came to my head

The day the verses flowed so freely

From the pain the that I was feeling

Today when the sun’s so bright

I still can’t see the light

Though the rays burn my skin

The light still won’t come in

My tears, they run so deep

But I don’t want them to see

I don’t know what else to do

So I write my words to you

It’s already 2012

Time goes by so fast. Haven’t been on Tumblr in a while. My life’s just been one big whirlwind of events since the end of last year.

I’ve gotta say, not making a new year’s resolution for this year has been my best decision so far. Instead of promising myself that I’m going to do something, I stopped contemplating things and just did it.

Hope to get some more Tumblr time in soon.

Chimera

I see you in my dreams

Creeping closer every cycle

As soon as my eyes close

The picture plays

And there you are

Dancing underneath my lids

Taunting me with the illusion of closeness

It felt like you were there

[I could even feel your hair]

Though the logic didn’t add up

I still felt that something was real

It wasn’t the odd color of the sky

Or the strange absence of pain

Not the curious way our soundless words made sense

No

The only thing that was real

Was what I could feel

And that alone

Made less sense than anything else

What did I feel?

[I hardly know, myself]

Madness

To this very day
It brings me sadness
That I’m only inspired
In a fit of madness

Hydro

I was sent into infinity

And swam there for centuries

Riding on the beat waves

Drifting through the rhythm’s haze

Kicking up

Kicking down

As the bass

Kicked the ground

Submerged silent seeing

Words form into being

There was meaning in the verses

Not a word without purpose

Words turning into life

Sound rebirth before my eyes

My heart boom boom popped

As the rhythm chord dropped

And my voice lost its sound

As the music took me down

[I didn’t hold my breath]

[I’ve got four minutes left]

Inspired by the song Lofticries by Purity Ring. This poem makes more sense to me when I read it and listen to the song at the same time.
