Who Am I

Who am I?

On a background of noise?
Am I an indecision?
What an I? 
An idea lined by words?
Unknown.

Attraction

Lithe, graceful,
light as air
barely human,
a figment
of imagination,
vagrant dreams,
attraction
to like parts, 
a certain lilting
smile.

Figment

WHAT CRUEL FATE
HAS TWISTED
THIS MESS
THIS MADNESS
THIS MONSTROSITY
THIS BLACK HOLE
OF A THING
INTO ME
WHOSE BLEAK VISION
WAS MADE REALITY.


Dearest Juliet

What is faith
but a journey
What is time
but a moment
What is truth
but a figment
What is love
— but goodbye

Flee...

The blood drips from the page.
Intoxicating smell perforates, ensues.
Taking back again. Female apparatus.
Figment of an over zealous imagination.
A dream, fantasy personified.

Her Smile Was Like the Dawn

Her smile was like the dawning sun
Illuminating colors in my life; 
Yet comes dusk she'll be reduced
Into a figment of my mind.

The joy brought by the thought of her
Is the woe of my emptiness.

The Conduit to Compliancy

I slip into a figment of imagination,
I find desire.
A place where I seek validation,
I become a Liar.
Our new human salvation,
I embellish the fire.
Social media: the place we all admire.

The Wind

The Wind

Billowing trees, rustling leaves,
Moving objects through its breeze.
Cold air rushing down the path,
Just a figment, of nature’s wrath!

Child Within

Where is the child I seek?
Is it hiding or is it dead?
Has it long ago been amputated? 
And it is the phantom that exists.
Or is its existence just a myth?
And only a figment in my mind’s labyrinth.

Whither thou goest? Thy wither showest. Ruddy in pigment, but a wee figment. In bas relief, exceedingly brief. ---------- H/T to Maurice Rigoler's Our Puritan Mentality

Virtually Real

The You I love is not the real You,
It is just the figment of You in the virtual world..
I don't even know whether You will ever pop out of the screen,
But if you do,I'm not sure whether I'll love the real You!

Money, money, money, the bane of our existence First, you see it, then you don't, only exists by persistence Perhaps a figment Constantly mimicked Not really real, too quick to be real, I need assistance

Figment of Your Imagination

In a goofy world there are goofy people.
In a perfect world there are perfect people. 
But in your world there is just you. 
Everyone else is just a figment of your imagination. 
Now stop daydreaming and get back to work.

Shadow

S himmering girth cloaking my footsteps
H ologram dredging my fleeting essence
A bridging lines covering time and space
D iminishing returns of temporal being
O utline coarsely cloning my dimensions
W ispy figment mocking my visual acuity

Fictitious Figment

Your dreamy bold curious unstable eyes
Juicy lips mounted with sober plausible sexy ties
Though silent yet propulsive pensive piercing voice
Curly hair, bare shoulder possessing fervid demise
All is enough to drive my sincere soul over flies

A Ghost Named Near

When I was a little girl
I had an imaginary ghost friend
whose name was Near
everyone always
thought for sure
that she was so much 
a real little girl
but little did they knew 
she was nothing 
but a figment of my childish imagination

Soul Survivor

i am a figure, a mystery person, you don't know me, i want to be a poet, i want to be a surgeon. i am not real, a figment of your imagination, i am a shadow, i am your creation. i am a life driver, and a late arriver, i survived life, i am a soul survivor.
