omg i haven't posted anything since july! alright, anyway felt like posting something today, since it's been quite a while and all. life is alright, still shit screwed bcs of assignments etc. got 2 more major ones to go, and then its exams and then... BATAM again! yayyyy.
hmm okay nevermind. so quite a bit has happened since july i guess, but then if you're reading this, you probably know me, and hence wont need to ask me what or whatever. was feeling quite shit today, trying to cram in my essay, and other problems, so decided (after a very long hiatus) to write a poem. (it is only relatively emo, don''t worry.) lol so here it is (probably won't make sense unless you know the context i guess):
Neither Here Nor ThereYou held me like a dove,
Peace in hand,
Land of endless clichés,
But you loved me that way.
And when night turned to cold,
My eyes found refuge in your clammy hands,
Freezing ice-cold outside, but heat within,
Turning you to snow.
I let you touch me as often as you wish,
Let you play me like guitar.
Let you adjust my strings,
Finger the frets til you were satisfied.
I gave in whole,
Breathed you in,
And then you let go,
Watch me turn animal,
Curl in arms,
Smell your skin,
Lose myself
As I lose you.
I am your pet trophy, your medal
You wear across your heart,
Throw me over your shoulders,
Sling me across your chest,
While you sing tales of the one that succumbed.
Your hands are still cold,
But the landscape which forms in me is no longer barren.
Though you are neither here nor there,
I wonder how long –
If I should wait,
Until the sunrise suppresses the clouds of dark,
The empty mountains in horizons stay clear,
With only a swallow by the rock,
Facing the river that you hear.
And as you watch this,
will you miss me then?
hmmm. okay it probably came out a little more depressing than i had hoped, but whatever. alritey, am off to shower, dinner, and then hopefully will finish my 20th century essay and start on my Blazing Saddles one tomorrow. will update more soon! (:
