Colors and Calm

You deserve the deepest hues

At whichever wavelength your monsters 

Require. I live your myths before fully 

Grasping the lore, even argue with sphinxes 

To preserve it. I’ll let you go

As easily as conscience goes.

You can calm the experience through 

Verses or claim it as an afterthought. 

I’d fondly regret on days when 

Everyone else has denied me and go 

Back to where we were blinded by 

Rose colored spaces – only to awake

As mundane and monochrome.

Yet, I’ll live as you can no longer.

Another Poem!

Here’s my worst. Sift through

The remnants of any redeemable trait.

In frustration or for entertainment. Yet

You are here dismantling by the second

Through careful movements yet secretly hoping

For an explosion, a chance for the satisfying

sigh of “I told you so.” Only you would

Unbox complex equipment without flipping

through the instructions and curse when the parts

unravel at the slightest fluctuations.

My turn to say, “I told you so.”
