Tear it to shreads To the Danse Macabre


It’s closing in,
The harmonic melody,
It’s tone deliberately grim.

As a one-time melody, it is heard by all.
A familiar, yet unfamiliar ring.

For the majority - its tune is distance.
But like all those before, I can hear it-
I can hear it deep within.

It’s seduction.
Always terribly well-advantaged,
Overpowering,
Never once balancing.

From a figure showing us from within, itgives a gesture done to many before myself,
Void of rush,
It’s time for our dance.

A figure showing us from within.

But what’s keeping my arm dangling at myside?
Something foreign-
It is something I am unable to recognize.

Limbs void of any flesh, it coaxes withits twists and turns
Its movements are calculated,
It leaves one to feel left out.

Not special but eternal,
Our well-worn dance.
But unlike it’s “ending”, it is mine instead.

Hello. Name's Mya, I'm currently a junior in highschool. I have awful grammar, I'm a frustrated writer, I don't like admitting that I'm sometimes pretentious; all the common place things.




I found this website completely by accident. Previously, I was on another website where poems could be shared… but the majority of them were about social issues and you could only really post about social issues if you wanted traction. Not well informed about stuff like that if I'm to be honest, so I never posted.




What I want is to just get better with my writing. I lose interest in a lot of the stuff I attempt to write; like I tried to write a novel in my sophomore year but I just completely lost interest in only a couple of days. Wrote a whole outline and everything... It just didn't capture my attention. So now I'm just a frustrated writer




But I can write poems, they usually only require about 30 mins of your undivided attention. If I have the need to edit them then it doesn't take me very long even with my harsh self-criticism.




So yea. Young, short-attention-span, nihilistic; all the common place things.
