Lux Bellavora Poems

Her mind revolts in deep despair,
She feels she’s sinking in.
It seems that it’s her punishment
For some unacknowledged sin.

Today’s the anniversary,
Of the day you became wed.
When both your lives were intertwined,
And both ‘I do’s were said.

We are printed
In black ink that stabs their paper-like skin
We are their names
Their souls
...

I guess it must be Christmas day
If you are reading this.
You’ve got what you’ve been asking for
And what was on your list.

I don't know what I'm doing anymore. So many plans, so many hopes, so many colorful dreams nestled in my scarred hands. But I stare down at them closely, even though they seem to blur, and then put them on the shelf to dry and settle. My burning feet for once crave to run barefoot in the new pleasures of spring,

Sometimes life is just holding out for the right time
To tell you it's alright to cry
and hold your pillow screaming deep
Into the night

The second day back is the worst
Why did we even invent Wednesdays?
No longer is the good first impression
Or the pity hello
...

Inside
everything is dark and torrential
Black and filled with squalor
A loud fog that chokes out all
...

So I guess this means we are never
Meant to understand what we want
because it's the universe's
Last cosmic joke to humanity
