Happy Birthday

Memories trickle down my spine
Murmurs flood into my mind
Your scent is haunting my soul 
This nightmare has been growing old
I blow out the candles yet again
Why must I have another year to spend?
Time is currency, and I wish to be poor.
A day spent in a curled up ball on the floor.
Another year, I should be grateful
But I can’t help but feel so hateful.
Wishing to be happy, happy with hope.
But you are the reason every year, I buy rope.

The Stars Tonight

Luminosity of the despondent star in the celestial land above
Had grown to be caliginous in nature 
Dwindled its crimson gleam

Dissolved into newfound restlessness, 
Parched, dark, waterless spring
Entreating for even a luster

Named a blessing buried underneath cloaks
The last cries of
A twinkle.

Flicker.
