Poem
Dear anxiety Nemesis to my reality, mental manipulator of tentative trust, massacring my once sagacious soul - you cut me into a slice of loneliness. The fault is in our thoughts, so I am haunted by the things you never said. You remain silent to society's subjective eyes, but a glimpse of a poet's soul shivers, to these vivid verses held by ghosts - echoing a repetitive chorus in a cathedral of screams. I'm an uninvited guest in an audience with you, so I drink poison in every line I write about you. These words burn my vocal chords, but I swallow them anyway, as my paper heart pumps onyx drops crying through my veins to heartache's recital of an infected celestial mind yearning for a remedy. But life is a cupid cruelty in dulcet disguise, when your heart is a sinister seashell, oblivious to potions of omen brewed in pigments of pixie-dust. You're an unwelcome melody to my mystic, composing an internal deadly demeanour. I am the ink stuck in your cage, dissolving like acid in your controlled carnage, confined to trembling bleeding intuitions, lost in corridors of horrific obscure mirrors, whilst paranoia palpitates in a whirling haze of magnetic ice warmth, melting my sanity, amidst crumbling stars that lure cavernous comets of silver grief to pirouette above frozen seas draped with a fluorescent creme of skies. As oceanic tides of topaz rise and fall, flatlined into pewter streams of emptiness. The moon coruscates in coral blue lies, passing through intractable phases of trepidation, abandoning light in black tourmaline nights - pivoting into a psychedelic trance. Rainbows fade before we can embrace their colorful showers drizzling jade jewels that rhyme with kaleidoscopic kismet, as life through rose coloured lenses turns into a provisional poetic manifestation. If only I could escape this self-inflicted dungeon, but you pursue like a perpetual predator. I'll forever expose your oppression through my poems, confessing how I never asked for this enforced affair. I know I'm my own storm, I'm my own calm - I just hope this is the last time I write about you.
