Estranged

ESTRANGED estranged changed suspended where angels fear to tread imposing deep thoughts noises infringe from the outside detonating all within © Kim van Breda—1 November 2015

Hot Intro

Oh this innocent tendency 

of observing inner-thinking introverts

to quickly like 
quiet looking loudly detonating hot-temperers
who they are a bit too though being 

observing inner thinking introverts

Premium Member Painted Signs

They shoot at us with rubber bullets
cause they don't like the words painted on our signs,
"Stop Detonating Love Bombs
In the Middle East!".
But I suppose that will be all that's left
when everyone dies for this
enigmatic War for Peace.

Icy Hearth

An ice cold firework
Discharges in my heart
Detonating out shards of ice
To pierce the mind
Pricking my fingers 
As the heat
Drains from me and
Like a welcoming fireplace
Warms the souls of the
Dead hearts I've dug up
From the graves of fireflies
That never saw it
Past summer

Lifeless Empathy

crimson blades lay lifeless
  trembling-
            
              drowning-

savored by the gold leaflets
that long for daybreak.

fire-orange blades rage-
    detonating-

              rupturing-

savored by the chartreuse leaflets
that thirst for rain.

Hues of combustion remain still-
twilight ascends and alleviates
with empathy...

Premium Member Traction

When I’m driving or the lights go out 
keeping pace with the dark I overthink;
Second winds of second guessing mount;  

I can’t get my mind and calm to sync 
so the two can exist in tandem;
Any rejuvenation’s squashed in a blink; 

Make shift thoughts collide at random
detonating quiet with a chain reaction;
Here then gone I can’t control them;

Breathing in I move forward a fraction,
slowly but surely I start to gain traction.

Sore Shoulders

Sore shoulders
Rough nightmares
In my sacred pillow
An unexpected message
From the past
Under a new name
I feel the hair on my neck tingle
I'm being watched
An autumn has passed
So much has been done
So much cannot be undone
I wake in fear
Exhale in relief
The weight has 
Already been lifted
My hands aren't tied
To a detonating bomb
I rub my wrists
Free
But weirdly uncomfortable
To not have the
Handcuffs of lead
on my wrists anymore
