Poetry By Eventide
A place to experiment before being dragged into the big time.

truth and secrets
Seeing you, watching you
standing there, apart
in arms reach and across the valley
sudden silent speech breaches the chasm.
Reading into it
my guess devours you

eating my insides
I am drawn as a moth
Nothing do I want more
Yet sickening to me
a bitter taste of sense
however common makes my insides
feel extruded to paste
then ground up like dried autumn leaves
I want nothing else
I need anything else
I could use a little help
Maybe we can meet for tea?
But then the turmoil would overtake
And I'd risk laying it all on your plate
Please, dawn. Come take me
Through this and past it
It is my race to heal
I am drawn as a moth
Nothing do I want more
Yet sickening to me
a bitter taste of sense
however common makes my insides
feel extruded to paste
then ground up like dried autumn leaves
I want nothing else
I need anything else
I could use a little help
Maybe we can meet for tea?
But then the turmoil would overtake
And I'd risk laying it all on your plate
Please, dawn. Come take me
Through this and past it
It is my race to heal
ever after
teased, as the prince[1]
longing for contact of the past
something has changed beneath the surface
all too oblique for my eye to see
[1] Geek joke: One turned into a talking frog is found by a geek. With no use for a partner the frog is kept as a novelty.

Somehow I feel special
Not only do you care
How strong I feel
But you wait until
I can bear it
Waiting quietly
patiently
Until time reaches
Reaches our moment
Not only do you care
How strong I feel
But you wait until
I can bear it
Waiting quietly
patiently
Until time reaches
Reaches our moment
