the ivory escape

An ivory off the shoulder blouse that flows like a painting of Renaissance

As my pinned back hair strands fall on my visage,so distraught

Lead the way through the spikes that cover my dream world then let me stand alone

Let me discover myself again with the Blues tune vibrating the gramaphone

Leave the window open just to let the breeze undulate the kitchen curtains

I want to see the lake snooze as I start to heat up the oven

I wish someone had told me how these little things were the most important

When the city lights started to fade out

And the air got cleared up from the longing for sovereignty

My mind began to wipe away every wound that poisoned me

While I spin around with my forty-fifty year old gown

To an old Clapton ballad,barefoot without a care,the need of a crown

Whiffled the ghosts away to their homeland,to the trivial past

But kept the devoted soldiers and got rid of the rest

The crowd disappeared but it didn’t bring the deadly silence I dreaded

Instead it’s dust gave a space for me to breathe and to comprehend

I picked up the tools I once shelved

When I promised myself I wouldn’t try to fix anything again

This time I built a hardwood arbour just for myself

Because sometimes solitude brings gratitude

And we all need that

Whispers don’t revolve into echoes unless you let them

And no cruelty can get to you

If you find other beauties that fuel you

Oh darling,I wish I knew

fill in the blanks

Stacks of hopeful thoughts became the sharpest axe

Of the polished reality I desperately built up for myself

I talk about running away but how can I with what I have?

And I hate the way my needs and desires always collapse

Oslo could be fun or Venice perhaps

But will anything fill in the blanks?

It’s like everybody found a way to start fresh

with a clean slate

So what have I done to deserve this ungoing cycle

of dark dread

It feels like I’m drowning more each day

and you don’t understand

This might be my last breath

holding onto the earth and it’s sharp ends

I try to make opportunities to learn and grow

But what’s the point if i’m always going to make them blow?

Spent weeks trying to hold a F4 without a flaw

I’ve always been flat and I could never make it raw

Heard many whispers about myself throughout my life

Shiny headlines,scoreboards I shoudn’t have cared about

No matter what I do,who I become,I always start from zero

Because there’s a voice that says “You have a long way to go”

Vienna would be the dream,Constantinopole is so near

But I can’t fill in the blanks,Instead I continue to disappear

Do you know what’s relatable?When Manon was trying to get Dorian to stay with her and and away from Morath in KoA but switching many emotions during it,offering alliance by marriage just so it doesn’t look emotional and STILL TRYING TO LOOK LIKE SHE DOESN’T CARE and Dorian is like ‘’i get what you’re saying but wtf’’

Sorry darling,just Slytherin thingss
